Join us to learn more about formative and summative assessment, practical tools to plan our assessment strategies, and approaches to assess different skills in the classroom.

Life Competency: Learning to Learn

Catherine Glennon

As educators, one of our main goals is to prepare our learners for life beyond the classroom. As such, learning how to learn is a crucial skill for our learners to master if they are to become independent learners. What skills and strategies do independent learners need? How can we foster independent learning in the classroom? This seminar will look to define what is meant by Learning to Learn, as well as demonstrate strategies and activities to use in the classroom.

Upcoming webinars

Bringing phonics to life for young learners: I like the sound of that!

We might not talk about Bruno (Disney reference for you there!), but we do talk about sheep in socks and parrots guarding grapes from crocodiles. Join us to explore the wonderful world of phonics, through Kid's Box New Generation. Encouraging children to speak is of course key in the primary classroom, so we'll be looking at how you can bring sounds and spelling to life and get everybody talking!

27 April, 09:00 - 10:00 Ecuador
