Future focused learning

I have spent alot of time reflecting on how to involve my junior class in more of their learning in Reading.
Last year I introduced Must do's and Can do's into my programme. I wanted more this year. I was using the Daily Five as a framework to create independence and have the children in more control of their learning.
This year I created the Digital Daily Five and introduced it to my class. One of the first issues was how to get juniors to find and access all the links independently.
To overcome this I created a class google account and shared the Digital Daily Five google doc with the class email.This mean the class just need to log onto the room10@tuakau.school.nz and open the invite.
