It was a very emotional moment …. some pupils noticed my ‘teary eyed’ look (sooo not like me!!) and began to lecture me about not getting too over- concerned about passing and failing.

They’re all sitting National Tests right now and their advice began with,

‘Mrs V – you know how you’re always telling us not to get over concerned about ….. well maybe you shouldn’t either’

It was then that I told them about your comment … and then I made the mistake of sharing your ‘you and your class should have a party to celebrate’ comment.

Party coming up on Friday afternoon – but will I be snoozing in the corner? ….. watch this space

Students are really at the centre of their learning now – they are using their online voices to reflect on and journal their offline learning; which in turn is guiding their online responses and thoughts. Very reciprocal.

Your students’ voices are loud and clear on their blogs, and in their comments on other blogs. They are confidently and competently using these social media tools to guide and reflect upon their learning on and off line.

Their formal and informal learning is merging to become authentic and personalised learning – leading to student engagement in relevant and satisfying learning – both at school and out of school.

You’ve looked at lots of interesting things and your abstract points to a worthwhile and relevant case study and ……..
you’ve nearly finished!!!!!!!
YAY – go girl the finish line is …… just …… over….. there…….!!!
