As educators, the second term offers a canvas to paint vibrant strokes of growth in learner
\nattitudes, attributes, and agency. Here\u2019s a glimpse of what we look forward to:
\nLearner Attributes
\nIn the 2nd term, we aim to foster the 8 key attributes in our students:
\nCreative & Innovative: We will encourage imagination through project-based learning (e.g.,
\ndesigning a dream playground).
\nAnalytical: Students will solve puzzles and explore \u201cwhat-if\u201d scenarios.
\nResolute: We\u2019ll teach goal-setting with fun challenges (e.g., \u201cRead at least 3 words daily by
\nsegmenting and blending this week!\u201d).
\nInquisitive: Open-ended questions will spark curiosity (e.g., \u201cHow does a plant grow?\u201d).
\nEmpathetic: Role-playing will help students understand and express diverse emotions.
\nGlobally Aware: We\u2019ll explore cultures via stories and festivals.
\nEthical: Discussions on fairness and honesty will be part of our lessons.
\nHealthy & Active: Learning will blend with movement (Math hopscotch, Science scavenger
\nhunts).
\nLearner Agency
\nWe look forward to:<\/p>\n
– Giving voice and choice to students in topics, methods, learning stations, resources, or
\npace (e.g., \u201cDo you want to write or draw about the story?\u201d).
\n– Creating a Student Voice corner for sharing ideas and feedback.
\n– Co-creating weekly goals with students and tracking progress together.
\n– Letting students decide how to present their work (poster, video).
\n– Encouraging self-assessment: How did I do? What next?
\n– Peer feedback and self-reflection.
\nOur Teaching Approach
\n– We will innovate lessons with tech (apps, videos) and hands-on fun.
\n– Use smiles, stickers, or verbal praise to motivate.
\n– Collaborate with parents for home-school sync.
\nWe\u2019ll start each day with a Learner Superpower focus (e.g., \u201cToday, we\u2019re analytical
\ndetectives!\u201d).
\nThe 2nd term will be a launchpad for empowered, joyful learning!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
