Reflecting on and adjusting our Theory of action
If teachers learn about different strategies to
enable students to ask questions then teachers might feel more confident about including question time in their mathematics lessons. On track - using different strategies and incorporating explicit question time.
If question time is explicitly allowed for and scaffolded then students might begin to ask more questions about their learning.
Students are beginning to, is taking a lot of time at the moment, still exploring different ways of scaffolding questioning to make it effective.
If students begin to ask more questions about their learning they might begin to take more ownership and direction of their learning. Working well in the Year 6 room, some students taking ownership and directing learning tasks. Generally heading in the right direction.
If students take more ownership and direction of their learning they might make better connections to their learning. Yes - some evidence of it starting to happen.
If students make better connections to their learning then they might be more engaged.Yes - starting to happen.
If students are more engaged in learning then they might be more motivated to gain a deeper learning of the content and skills. Using blogs and iPads is engaging students in asking questions and doing independent research on topics or questions.
If they have a deep understanding of content and skills students might achieve better results in mathematics.
