Whanau Kauri Workshops (reading)

I have been thinking about how to move forward with our Thursday student/whanau workshops as they start to get bigger. I think I might try and ask at DFI today how I can set up a shared doc that will be up on the screen where each student/whanau group can collaborate in real time and can be seen as distinctively their own and therefore differentiated.

This could work really well instead of teacher at front of the class, as the momentum of the group dictates the pace. I might try a spelling workshop based on my usual spelling lesson, but instead of me at the front the students will collaborate and teach their whanau how to do it and therefore take it home to continue.

I will try a range of activities to blend on tables such as rainbow words, backwards words, crosswords and wordfind that the students can do in choice based rotations after the initial mini lesson on the screen using chromebooks and online dictionaries.
