Year 4 Learning Walk

Last Wednesday afternoon, families of our Year 4 students were welcomed into our classrooms to engage in our first Learning Walk. This provided students the opportunity to share what we have been learning in Writing and Mathematics. Students individually engaged in a writing activity that was based on a visual stimulus. They had to consider and imagine what the person in the image could see, smell, hear, taste and touch. This inspired students to think creatively and use descriptive language to engage their reader. Parents were invited to share their ideas and co-construct this text with their children. The Mathematics activity entailed students playing an array game with their parents which involved recall of multiplication facts. The collaborative nature of the activities ensured that students and parents were engaged and active participants in the learning experiences.
