Giant Journal of Learning….In progress

“We should create a documentation board like we had in prep that shows all our maths!” Ravi

Giant Journal of Learning

Over the last couple of weeks, the children have begun publishing work on our Giant Journal of Learning. Reflecting on the year, the students in the neighbourhood are drawing on skills developed through PHN reporting in term 1 and terms 2 to document learning, summarize, edit and publish.

Leaving a note is just like the Giant Journal of Learning! We are leaving a GIANT note for next years year 1s and 2s” – Milo

Initially, the children worked together to identify key highlights from the year, quickly moving into three inquiry project groups, each with a unique focus. The groups are Literacy, Numeracy and Wellbeing, and the students in each group have the job of documentor and editor. It is up to each group to capture the learning from 2021 in the way that suits best, which has quickly seen re-exploration of the spaces and the languages they support.

“It connects to the Giant Journal of Learning! That book is a note to every 1&2 who comes to this neighbourhood! But, of course, other are notes too.” -Oscar

“Such as… The Inquiry wall in the torus, documentation of students, our blog and our portfolio!” – Oscar

As we pull the Giant Journal of Learning together, students have also taken on the responsibility to design the front cover, contents page, puzzles pages, authors biographies, photo pages and digital codes to gain access to seesaw learning from the year.

We are looking forward to finalizing our Giant Journal of Learning soon and presenting it back to the children and to the wider community and a celebration of the 2021 school year.
