Reflections of my journey on student coaching.
DAY 3 I USED TO THINK that using reflective prompts with students allows them to verbalise their learning and set goals for themselves for future learning BUT NOW I THINK using peer reflection and coaching will develop in student deeper thinking and higher order articulation of what they are learning. I have attached some reflective and learning prompts that I use for individual students and am now developing coaching prompts to use for them to help their peers.  **Learning reflections “Reading” ** Name……………………

I USED TO THINK that demonstrating different strategies or procedures and varying what tools you use with students that they would remeber the use and value of each BUT NOW I THINK that by introducing them one at a time and stating explicit learning intentions will help them retain the why and what of each. Jill's idea of displaying each one on the learning wall as they have used it is a fabulous idea.This then becomes a wall of options for when students present their ideas.
