This is the tukutuku panel representing our syndicate learning philosophy.
Welcome to this Room 6 blog. Our learning philosophy is to LEARN, CREATE, SHARE.  ie To LEARN about something through research and investigation, to CREATE an artifact that shows our learning, and then SHARE it in creative ways, including posting it here on this blog.The purpose of this blog is for students to become accustomed to sharing their learning, receiving feedback, and using the suggestions to develop and improve their writing.

Notes for parents:
Individual blogs are places where Room 6 children show their learning.  The work posted is "as is" and authentically show the stage your child is at.  While students will make every effort to have work corrected and error free it is in fact authentic student work, showing where students are at, and so there are likely to be some mistakes. The aim is to note progress and improvement, and we expect to see this over time.

Parents, you are invited to leave comments or questions on the posts in these blogs.  Children love to know their work is being read and your comments may inspire them to develop further as writers.

Children have been given the following guidelines to assist them.

  • Only learning activities and links are to be posted.
  • Read through previous feedback comments to help you get better with what you post.
  • Include the WALT so readers know why you are posting the work.
  • No personal information No phone numbers or addresses. Use only your first name and surname initial.
  • Proof read very carefully. Get your work peer checked by at least two other children, to identify any errors. Then correct your work before you post.
  • If you get comments that you agree with, about fixing your work , you can go back into your blog and make corrections.
