Developing a shared Language for Learning Learning to Learn
Why talk about Learning Habits? • Our current world is constantly changing • Young people need to be able to cope with complexity, uncertainty and ambiguity. • Our knowledge changes all the time. • Children and young people need to become aware of their own learning. • Children can learn to learn • Children need to be able to overcome obstacles to their own learning. • 75% of jobs our children will do have yet to be invented! …. Learning habits will not become redundant
What can it mean for Grove Road? • becoming a better learner means you have a language to talk about learning and are aware of using and strengthening learning behaviours • being a better learner helps you to tackle problems more confidently because you are using a broad range of learning behaviours

I will improve, there are no limits to what I can achieve. I will succeed despite difficulties. I have the willpower to always try my best.
Curiosity • Be inventive • Be open minded • Challenge accepted views • Take risks
Colin the Curious Owl Can I be open minded? Can I ask an interesting question? (Who? What? When? Where? Why?) Can I think of a different way? Can I find links and patterns within my learning? Can I try something new?
Communication • Have a voice • Work within a team • Value different options • Listen
Buzz-bee the Confident Communicator Be a good listener and hear the buzz. Be adventurous and share your ideas. Being part of a team helps us to learn. Be empathetic and try to see things from another viewpoint. Be brave and speak with confidence.
Independence • Take responsibility • Use your initiative • Be organised • Review your own progress
Indie the Independent Squirrel I like to take charge of my own learning. I use my mistakes to learn more. I can plan my steps to success. I know what I am good at and where I need to improve. I know what I need to help me become an independent learner.
