  1. TLIF @MHJC - "Authentic connections - Using    MathematicsandStatistics in other learning areas" Tashi Hishey & Chandana Premdeep

  2. Growing Greatness; Kia mana ake - through innovative, constantly evolving personalised learning GREAT Learning & Learners @MHJC MHJC Graduate Profile

  3. Collaborative Planning @MHJC FOREST COAST Done by Whanau/PLC (no Departments)- Students and teachers belong to a Whanau - Specialist Learning Area teachers represented in Whanau - Students have secondary school timetable (moving to each class) - Teachers who teach the same classes plan together Authentic, Relevant & Engaging Contexts - No pre-written schemes from departments - A scheme is digitally completed during the course of the learning & teaching - Authentic experiences and application of learning at its heart - Multiple learning areas collaborating - student voice WATER MOUNTAINS

  4. GREAT Ako LEARNING FRAMEWORK Making learning VISIBLE Framework used in planning, teaching and learning

  5. Term 3 - Learning and TeachingAchievement Objectives - Statistics Statistical investigation: Plan and conduct surveys and experiments using the statistical enquiry cycle. .. AND/OR Statistical literacy: Evaluate statistical investigations or probability activities undertaken by others, including data... • Yr 9 Math and Science: Explore Planet Earth & Beyond Context Achievement Objectives - Science Investigate the interdependence of living things (including humans) in an ecosystem Investigate the the conditions on the planets and their moons and the factors affecting them. Investigate how heat from the sun, the earth and human activities is distributed around earth by the geosphere, hydrosphere and atmosphere • Yr 10 Maths and PEH: Gender Equality Context Achievement Objectives - PEH Investigate the societal influences on the well-being of student communities. Understand how attitudes and values relating to difference influence their own safety and that of other people. • Yr 10 Maths and Social Studies: Census Context Achievement Objectives - Social Science Understand how systems of government in New Zealand operate and affect people’s lives….

  6. What process did we go through to identify the curriculum connections, develop and plan context ideas?

  7. Process to planning these contexts? Professional Development…… School Visits Math focused learning • Sphero Robots • Our thanks to OSC for their support and guidance Howick College ‘Innovation Stream’: two learning areas collaborating through project based team teaching (Notes) Selwyn College - ‘Selwise’: Shared language of learning (Notes) Ormiston Junior College - ‘TAIP: TRANSDISCIPLINARY AUTHENTIC INQUIRY PROJECT’ (Notes) Ormiston Senior College - ‘PEH & Statistics Collaboration’: bivariate data (Notes) Sketching shapes to analyse graphs - Dr Pip Arnold • CODAP • Our thanks to Dr Pip Arnold, Cognition • TinkerPlots and Probability Modelling • Dr Anne Patel, Census at School; for sharing her PHD work

  8. Process to planning these contexts? Time spent supporting our collaborative partner to understand each others curriculum Achievement Objectives, Learning Intentions and needs…. So that we could work in service of each others curriculum Collaborative Planning Conversations “Focused on learning, not content” Achievement Objective Coverage + Collaboration of Achievement Objectives Increased Curriculum time for Numeracy Achievement Objectives covered in other Curriculum time

  9. Process to planning these contexts? Learning Intentions Team planning sessions Timelines

  10. 50/50 - Inequality/Equality with Aly and Tashi Math and PEH driven context

  11. 50/50 - Inequality/Equality with Aly and Tashi Math and PEH driven context Students thought that Music Videos are health influencers. But why might this be? Is the gender inequality gap existent in music videos? And if yes, how do we go about changing how genders are portrayed?

  12. Out of this World with Gill & Chandana Math and Science driven context Exploring through Plan & Do Challenges Team teaching Beginning of the week Two hour block with Two classes Separate Math and Science lessons for the remainder of the week

  13. MHJC Data Embassy with Meera and Kate Math and Social Science driven context Census results & analysis used to by Sci/Eng in a GM Context as well as the next Math/PEH/Glob context focused Health and Financial Wellbeing

  14. Project conclusion….. Math Achievement - accelerated & enriched ENGAGED low achieving Math students, and it provided PURPOSE for the high achieving Math students

  15. Resources for you to access….. Context Outlines Out of this World context (Space) - outline MHJC Data Embassy context (Census) - outline 50/50 context (Gender Equality) - outline
