Relationships with the community and parents for student well-being

Below is a snippet from an email communication between parent and myself, regarding a student with ADHD's welfare. I have also been in contact with the local health nurse who gave me some information (pic below) about strategies for ADHD students. This student's Dr has also been in contact, keeping me up to date with decisions about medication etc. (pic below)

Reflecting on my Maths Video

Working with target maths group

Here are some short video clips of me working with my target group in maths. We were placing different representations of fractions along a numberline. Fractions were a mix of simple, improper and mixed. I had been working on using the 5 talk moves to get more mathematical discourse happening. I think I'm using them pretty well, however I need to make sure I'm using all five, not just re-using the same two or three. Another next step for me will be to move towards the students initiating the discussion, rather than it being so teacher led.
