Celebrating a small victory. I have sent an email to a number of people to try and initiate an idea to build a link between our school and our feeder primary schools.
I have been trialling a gamification challenge with my year 7 class. My suggestion is to extend this challenge to our feeder primary schools. To have year 5 students compete against year 7 students. I can see many benefits to the idea, but the challenge is to convince others of its value. It is a good opportunity to build relationships between the schools and also support the students to develop their mathematical fluency and problem solving skills. I'll let you know how I go, whether I can get some others to accept the challenge, to help their students take flight.
