This unit explores how you might build the habit of Planning in your students.
Sections 1 – 4 look at;
- Planning and how it develops. Unpick the meaning of Planning, how it develops over time and use the Planning chart to plot where your students are now.
- Taking Planning into classroom culture. Offers numerous suggestions to develop a questioning friendly culture and build students’ Planning skills.
- Blending Planning with content. Suggests a series of questions and steps you might use to ensure the development of Planning claims its place in the curriculum and is designed into lesson/activities to aid understanding.
- Team reflection and planning. Share the impact of your experiments with colleagues and plan what you need to do next.
The resource materials in the Learning Diary: Planning help you to distil important messages, home in on the key bits of information and design learning experiments specifically for you.
You will probably need to spend a bit over an hour on sections 1-3. Section 1 may take about 20 minutes to get your head round. Section 2 should take you about another 20 minutes to browse through. Section 3 needs at least a 30 minutes of hard thinking. Section 4 is a linked Professional Learning Team session which will have been organised to take place sometime after this on-line session, and should take about 75 minutes.
