In Learning Habitat One the learners are getting more choice over the independent learning tasks that they are able to do during iDevelop. Today I observed Shubi, Navnoor, Riya and Sameeha playing a clapping game. My first thought was that they were off task and I moved over to them to direct them to a more meaningful task when I heard what they were actually doing. They had been taught this clapping game in a Mathematics Workshop by Mrs Patrick which was for practicing their skip counting in a fun way. From the group I over heard laughing, correct skip-counting, self correcting, and mentoring of others when they were unsure of the next part of the pattern. This is perfect evidence of innovative learning. They were engaged and enjoying their learning. During this game Shubi and Navnoor were using their Capabilities by helping others complete the pattern when they got stuck. Riya was showing Collaboration as she the game was a game that had to be done with partners and she discussed with the others about the next series of numbers. Sameeha was showing Connection because she talked about how skip counting was a lot like multiplication.

Bariyah, Momo, Eknoor, Daisy and Riya are all in the Pioneers Math Group. In Term 1 we are particularly focusing on strategies to help us when we add and subtract. The first strategy we looked at required the learners to practise how to connect their knowledge of doubles when adding. A basic example of this is 5 + 5 = 10, so 5 + 7 is the same as 5 + 5 + 2 = 12, or 10 + 2 = 12.
All five girls were new to this strategy and after two sessions they were capable of clearly outlining their thinking out loud and in writing. They practised by using counters to make groups, identifying which double they needed to use, and then splitting the larger group to make the matching double with the left overs.
