Reflection on survey and Ground rules for talk

 I did they survey with my class. I have half a class of Year 4 and half of Year 3. As there was no option for Year 3 the whole class chose Year 4.

I noticed that a lot of the scoring was a 3. They feel pretty good and confident about maths in general but not really good. 

33% like their maths problems to be hard which is interesting. 

They feel like they get some feedback about their learning and they find this really helpful.

Alot think that working on their own helps them with their maths. We had a discussion about this which tied into our lessons on Ground rules for talking/ working with buddies and sharing our ideas.  

The tamariki have really embraced working with a buddy to talk about their thinking. They are managing to work with someone new most days and not get upset about who they are working with. There is lots of positive talk about this before the buddies for the day are chosen.
