43. First
Steps
•
•
•
•
CollecGng
baseline
data
(formaGve
assessment)
What
do
they
know?
What
are
their
strengths?
What
areas
need
further
development?
How
will
we
support
this
development?

44. • Looked
at
the
results
as
coded
on
the
performance
standard
• Developed
an
inquiry
quesGon
• Made
a
plan
• Spent
a
term
in
each
classroom.
Two
blocks
each
week.

45. Inquiry
QuesGons
• How
does
the
implementaGon
of
literacy
centres,
that
focus
on
reading
rather
than
isolated
skills,
change
the
engagement
and
moGvaGon
of
the
students
and
will
they
become
more
skilled
readers?
• How
does
implemenGng
guided
reading
or
small
group
reading
instrucGon,
with
my
support
teacher,
further
our
students’
reading
development?
