As the Police sung it! I see my focus students as the following children who all have ideas and are willing writers, but very unmotivated or just unsure about applying learning to independent writing and being able to edit or be self aware of the need to edit.
Wade
Christopher
Jamie
Kaleb
Ryan
Alexus
Sam D
Why them?
All of these students are willing writers and capable of participating and contributing to writing in groups and independently, but when it comes to applying skills and learning independent of the teacher they don't.
What could the inquiry be about?
- Boys motivation, sporty kids motivation
- understanding where to next
- ownership of where to next
- planning vs not
- sharing unpacking
- honesty about levels (home truths)
- exemplars
- skills sessions vs genre teaching
