Tohatoha - Share the third component of the Manaiakalani learning Kaupapa.
Today the learning was about ways to share students' learning outside of their school and with friends and whanau. Blogging offers a space for students to share their learning experiences and to connect with the wider community, including their whanau. As a Manaiakalani school blogging is a part of our learner's education and how it not only can benefit the student, their whanau, and the wider community.
Blogging gives the students a voice and an opportunity to express and share their thoughts, ideas, opinions, and experiences.
Blogging is an excellent way to bridge the gap between school and home. Students can regularly post to their blog about their learning experience with their Whanau.
Students sharing on their blogs encourages them to build conversations. Through comments and responses, students can engage with other students, their teachers, and Whanau in meaningful dialogue.
Regular blogging encourages students to think critically about their learning. This routine of reflection and expression can help make learning more meaningful.
What a great tool for the student to celebrate and share their learning.
Kia Ora Edwina, Great to hear that blogging is going so well for you at your place! It certainly helps whānau make connections with what their learners are doing at school. It has been wonderful to work with you this year and hear about all the things you are doing in your classroom. Please keep in touch and let us know of your on-going successes! Nga mihi nui Kiri
