 * Kainui NZ Curriculum Project Cluster – 2010 Our Story so far. **

Purpose of the project for 2010 is for our schools to develop an online resource that shows our journey in developing our School Curriculum and ways that we are working towards introducing the standards.

The schools involved in this cluster are:  Bunnythorpe School - Lead School  Awahou  Colyton  Hiwinui  Mount Biggs

Initial Discussion was held with Heather Bell 01.06.2010 at Bunnythorpe School.

**Our task will be for each school to develop some form of Online Content: (3 – 4 min) where each school will explain the curriculum framework developed so far for use within their school . **

 **Talk about the journey taken**  · brief outline  · what is being done with it

 **Evidence of the framework from the classroom** <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;"> · teachers <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;"> · students

<span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;"> **Discussion as to how this might link to standards**

<span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;"> When we talk about evidence of achievement it is mainly through using diagnostic tools. Our thrust will be on developing the observational and conversational aspects. As we are an ICT PD Cluster it will be good to use digital technology to develop this resource.

<span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;"> **Make links to our school Wiki sites** as a separate page and have it password protected so that it is only visible to us. The aim will be to build this up over Term 3 / 4 and have it ready to go live at the end of November beginning of December.

<span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;"> **Think about developing a digital diary** <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;"> · U Tube <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;"> · Voice Thread with several layers

<span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;"> Heather might be able to help us develop the digital aspects of our resource.

<span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;"> **Explore using Voice Thread as a way of developing moderation across the cluster schools** without the need of physically meeting each time. Examples of work can be put up in Voice Thread and comments, questins added by those who have access to the group. Video clips etc can be added – worthwhile exploring further.

<span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;"> **Google Wave** – this can be used as a group discussion tool. The other option is to set up a group within Google to share information and work on documents.

<span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;"> **Time Frame: 2010** <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;"> **Term 2/3:**

<span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;"> **Kainui NZ Curriculum Cluster - 2010**

<span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;"> Individual School Stoories – Encourage discussion of processes used. <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;"> Schools work on gathering the information, evidence etc.

<span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;"> Add a NZ Curriculum page to Wiki’s as a place to store the information etc. – Set this page up so others outside your school can not see it because it is really only a storage place initially.

<span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;"> Information can include: <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;"> School framework <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;"> How you got there <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;"> Evidence from the classrooms <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;"> Where to next <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;"> How will you know when you get there?
