Kia ora and welcome to take three of this blogging escapade. Of all these papers I think this may be my most challenging as it requires regular written reflections. After reading and watching videos about reflections I realised I wasn't completely reflecting on my practice, I was leaving out the important WHY I did what I did. I have introduced reflective writing to my year 8 class, and they noted up until then they had been more descriptive than reflective so it's been time for me to reflect. I realised they reflected the way I asked them them to, and without expecting more I got what I got. I guess I didn't have the full understanding until I pulled it apart, and I realised if you don't know the WHY of what you do you can never truly address it or bring about sustainable change.
As a reflective practitioner I want to be the best, learn from my mistakes and continually grow my pedagogy and knowledge so that I can best provide for my learners, growing them also as reflective learners. So here we go, after much procrastination and learning to breathe underwater or drown under the workload I begin my blogging journey.......again
