Collaborative planning meetings are a time for teachers to meet in their year level teams with single subject teachers and the Primary Years Programme Coordinator. We share recent student discoveries, develop provocations, brainstorm ways to extend learning further and discuss the unit connections with mathematics and language. These meetings are exciting and challenging. They require all of us to find creative ways to help our students learn. After each meeting, I return to the office and share that excitement with Mr. Gauci. He and I then discuss ways to further our thinking but mostly we get excited about the wonderful teaching staff we are working with. They are dedicated, always seeking ways to develop their practice further and eager to support each individual student. I am sure you saw this at Parent Orientation. We all are here to nurture your children and share in developing them into responsible global citizens.
