Maree our amazing TA has been working with them and when I mentioned that if she got photos I would get a child to convert it into a movie for us, and she said ... "I just find, I'm so busy, I don't get time to take photos" which was a perfectly valid point ... SO ... instead of acknowledging defeat... and opting for status quo... We improvise and change what we do to make the things that are valuable even more valuable by documenting them, creating with them, and sharing them so we can reflect on our own learning, rewind our learning or help others with their learning.
PLAN B emerged.
This week we chose a year 2 student who was both confident with using an iPad, and confident at writing. Her job was to make notes while in the Lego room with the play based learning group, and take lots of photos. When they all came back to a breakout room by Team Maunga, it was her job to write alongside these writers and convert her notes into an explain everything or movie.
This had such potential to be motivating for all involved (including those students within the main class who wanted to be apart of it next time!). Sienna M did a fantastic job of recording and creating around the learning this group were doing. Well done everyone!
WAHOO... Lesson here for us all... Where there is a will, there is a way.
