The goals I set for myself at the beginning of this trimester was to explore myself much more as learner, and explore the similarities I may have with students in the classroom in regard to learning literacy. After significant self-reflection and deep thought, learning for me is much more of a visual experience over most other aspects of learning. I thrive when there is flow charts, pictures, graphs etc. involved in the learning process.
One resource which goes into detail about visual learners is from this website (https://www.sproutlabs.com.au/blog/learning-activities-for-visual-learners/) which explores the multitude of activities and ways of setting out tasks which cater for those who learn visually.
The second resource I love to use, is the literacy learning toolkit (https://www.education.vic.gov.au/school/teachers/teachingresources/discipline/english/literacy/Pages/default.aspx). This resource is very helpful when it comes to delivering content in regard to literacy, it has gotten me out of a bind many times if I’ve felt stuck or needing extra assistance. It explores the way children learn literacy, giving hot teaching tips and activities to ensure the best possible outcome for students.
