Room+8

**Why?** - its learning intention eg) addition, sequencing, retelling.
 * Samples of work will need to have**:
 * What ** the students were actually doing it for (its purpose).
 * How ** it enhanced the learning.

**Numeracy**
W.A.L.T....... use "Tidy Tens" to assist us with our addition.

GROUP: 3 Specific targeted students in Room 8 with specific needs in their maths.

LESSON : Pupils were given a series of 5 dice each and a mini whiteboard with felt pen. They were asked to throw the dice and quickly add the sum using tidy tens. They needed to group the pairs of dice or as many dice as made up the number ten. They were able to easily add the remaining dice to arrive at their answer. By grouping these answers on the whiteboard they were able to complete a series of equations. The ICT component of the lesson required the pupils to go to the NZ Maths site and explore the Tidy Tens games available and compete against each other. They were able to take the dice to the computers to assist them in their work.

SUCCESS CRITERIA : Pupils should be able show increase the speed of their computations and will eventually not need to use the dice.



Sport and PE Planning Wiki
http://mispeandsport.wikispaces.com/ Purpose: Development of a central place to access all sport and p.e planning and timetables. By using the Wiki staff have 24 hour access to resources that they might need for long term and short term planning. Learning Intention: Professional development in creating a Web2 portal with the aim of creating one for classroom use in 2011. Impact:

 * A central place for storage of planning and timetable information..
 * Ensuring that as teachers we are using 21st Century tools.
 * Having the confidence to navigate around and use new methods of information distribution.
 * Wiki will allow sharing of resources because everyone will have access to the Wiki - this means that not only is information available to all, everyone also has the opportunity to add to the information available from their own resources. - Contributing and collaboration.
