The goals for them to:

  •   Write at least 6 sentences that describe something.
  •  Use different types of sentences.
  •  Use nouns, adjectives and adverbs in their sentences.

 

Mrs. Singh thought of adding an experience for them to feel, taste, touch, sound and smell. 

She has given her class an example to start their writing.

Students touched different textures, smelt different fragrances and had a taste of different types of food.

My leaf is as crunchy as an apple. 

My leaf has white dots and lining in between 

The yellow flower has Petals inside 

White flowers smells like vanilla ice cream 

Ohhh I like this green sauce, it’s very spicy. I like spicy food too. 

Can I go and drink water because the sauce is very spicy and I can’t handle it. It feels like my throat is burning. 

This pickle is so yuk but I like spicy sauce, I also like spicy food 

Minions love banana so do I 

I eat banana everyday, I can easily describe banana 

Mrs Singh, I have written 3 pages and I also used nouns and adjectives in my writing

Every student has a voice, a strength, and a unique path to success. As teachers, our role is to listen, empower, and guide them toward their fullest potential.

Being a teacher is more than just imparting knowledge. It requires passion and dedication. Creating a dynamic and inclusive learning environment where every student feels valued, supported, and empowered to take ownership of their learning journey is crucial. 

With a student centered approach, I recognise and celebrate the diverse strengths, backgrounds, and learning styles of each individual in my classroom. Academic content is taught alongside skills of collaboration, problem-solving, empathy, and resilience. 

Teaching is not just my profession, it is my passion. By encouraging students' curiosity, critical thinking, questioning and risk taking, students become lifelong learners.

Beyond the classroom, I find inspiration in nature through gardening, where I see parallels between nurturing plants and nurturing young minds. Both require patience, care, and the right environment to flourish. Time spent with my whānau is deeply valued as family is at the heart of my personal and professional values.
