Morphological Teaching Strategies- Zoom Reflections

 Taumata 4- Mahuri 

Taumata 5- Rakau

Notes:

• Lead chn to see/discover pattern before teaching it. (e.g ch/tch lesson in video)
• Recommended number of repetitions- research proven (refer to lesson plans)
• Word chains in list one after another. Read back. Goal to be fast, focus on spelling not handwriting etc.
• Link to reading and writing: Taumata 4 Phom to reading. Taumata 5 focus on writing and reading from Phom lesson.
• Use shared text in PHOM lesson. Engaging all learners.
• Refer to optional extension to differentiate for all learners.

Reflection:

I am noticing that my whole class PHOM lessons may not be effectively reaching all learners needs. The children reading Level 19-25 are picking up spelling patterns quickly and need extension. The children in Tupu need more support. The Mahuri group that these PHOm lessons are aimed at are identifying the target sounds in the texts but not transfering them to writing.

I can see how Taumata 5 lessons would really benefit the higher groups and I am wondering if there is a need for the Tupu group to join Rita's class as we had originally planned.

Takeaway:

-Plan to use shared text in PHOM lesson.

-Move though scope and sequence as planned and cycle back.
