7 3 Josh PDF
Jaye has invited Josh into small group work which has helped with confidence and independence
Need to build up ability to solve problems for self, deal with setbacks and persist in areas of difficulty.
Can suggest 2 alternatives to choose from, but not to opt out.
NAPLAN results shared with Eleanor. Josh has achieved NMS in all areas. Lowest area was Numeracy. This
is a positive result.
Can use information in Naplan to help design learning goals eg writing
Online version has been fine for Josh. All NAPLAN will be online from 2017 onwards
Writing with Jaye: will use resources from classroom and own to support planning and development of
written work. Focus on editing and improving a piece of work rather than producing multiple pieces of
work. Quality over quantity.
Group work makes possible opportunities for Josh to show what he can do and understand.
Eleanor would like to connect with Alex Duncan as Josh enjoys PE but does not like Footy (out of school
sport). He finds this hard so maybe about exploring what can we do to get better, stronger, more skilled.
Practice / persistence!
Some work continuing on specific speech sounds. Jaye maintains expectations and has Josh's trust to
practice and master some of these skills.
Eg: d sounds, ang for and
Tongue twisters work.
Try finding stories and picture books to develop this understanding of resilience, practice and persistence.
Power word used by Jaye is known by Josh to remind him to not give up eg Seth/ Sith
Brave Ray
R2D2 is a worrier
These are Star Wars character's personalities
Refer to 5 point scale to regulate behaviour. Teach Josh strategies to manage when issues arise.
Concern for next year with Alex starting Kindy. Kindy allows school children to go inside preschool in term
1; not sure how Alex will handle the separation at end of break. Set the agenda if this is to become a
problem, ie, Ask Josh to not come in, if it creates a problem for Alex.
Eleanor is working on an idea from ASA to develop a Personal Passport to describe Josh and Alex for staff.
Important info to share to create understanding of each child.
Suggestion : Meet again at end of term to check in with how things are going.
