In my previous post, I identified the challenge my inquiry will focus on as accelerative learning of developmental skills students need to be 'ready for school'. Creating a programme for our Year 1 students that will fit their unique needs and that of our community.
There are many programmes out there each. Each programme has assessment tools that measure the skills that those programmes teach. As our students' needs are so diverse and we will be researching effective teaching from across a range of programmes to best meet the needs/cultures of our students. Therefore, we have decided to draw from a range of assessment tools/measures from across different programmes to best fit our student's needs.
From my preliminary findings through observations of students behaviours, I will identify key areas to measure student achievement using existing measures from existing programmes that teach that skill.
My next step is to observe student behaviours to find areas of development students find most challenging. From there I will look at assessment tools that measure this skill/area of development. I will then use these tools to measure progress as I change my teaching practice to meet the students' needs.
