DFI Session 3 Slides- Upgrading and Animation

  • What did I learn that increased my understanding of Manaiakalani kaupapa and pedagogy?

I enjoyed this create session today as it gave me tips and ideas to take back to the classroom. This create session allowed for experimenation and discussion and alot of laughter which is awesome as it replicated what will go on in a classroom. I also liked us breaking of into topic specifc groups or bubbles so that we can choose ideas or themes that suited us more and allowed for agency and autonomy. I also enjoyed reading about the cybersaftey part of MK. This puts my mind at ease and Im sure will also help parents and whanau feel more comfortable with being the learner and their child the teacher!
"Lifelong Kindergarten Group" philosophy interests me and as I read more about this I hope I can share this kaupapa with the Syndicate.
  • What did I learn that could improve my confidence, capability or workflow as a professional?

Slides is my main form of planning at the moment on my webpage. Working with the three tutors day meant I could practise and problem solve to enhance my abolity to support the children in my class to access and safely use tech .
I feel confident (not to confident) about creating an engaging slide for work flow for the children in my class and then allowing them to take a risk aswell and create a slide animation.
  • What did I learn that could be used with my learners?  

As metioned I like the thought of giving purpose to Writing tasks with the animation. At the moment we have be looking at scratch jnr, however for the ease of teaching and sharing Slides could be a great place to start.
  • What did I learn that could improve my confidence, capability or workflow in my personal life?

Utilsing my new knowledge within weekly planning.
Maybe focus on accessing a Slide for one reading group or writing group first and then then slowly become the tuakana for the class
Making sure that we can share these slides! This will be a work on as my time with blogger has been a bit hit and miss this week!
Ka kite whanau

  2. Kia ora Mel,
    I loved your butterfly animation as well. It is always interesting to hear what part of the day you find helpful, and which parts challenge you. Slides have plenty of scope for use in the junior classroom. Here is a link to Marizaan's class site: https://sites.google.com/waitaracentral.school.nz/waitaracentralschool/home - still a work in progress but she is a whizz at using slides creatively so you might get some ideas. Nā, M

  3. Kia ora Mel,
    I found out last week that the Lifelong Kindergarten Group were the creators of Scratch! Your animation looks great, I love that the first slide has information on it.
    Hei āpōpō!
