Writing Tumble
Focus- to see how teacher uses a writing
tumble and seeing groups
15mins per each activity
Spelling group has a spelling worksheet to
work on.
Crafts table- making cards
Free writing
Pobble tasks- there are task cards that are
in a box students work through so there are different pegs- Mon, Tues, Wed,
Thursday
Teacher has an alarm to signal the change of
activity.
Teacher has an Ideas picture on board for
what they could write about for their free writing or publishing.
Pobble tasks group change over to teacher.
Group observation- T what did we focus on last lesson- Describing
feelings, character- look like, wearing, what type of character are they.
Group has already written about a character
Teacher gets student to read story about
their character.
Students are working on making their writing
better. So they are in the re-crafting stage.
Teacher looks at student’s books and works
through giving feedback on their work and asking how they could make it better.
Students that are finished their writing from
the day before can choose another piece of writing to finish working on.
Students were all asked what they were doing
and could all easily explain what they were doing and why.
Alarm goes off then groups change over.
Teacher calls next group down.
Reflection
I find there isn’t enough time to see each
student in the groups
All students were fully engaged and on task. Really impressed was such a cool way of doing
writing,
If I was to do a writing tumble I would make
sure that day 1 students would work on writing either with teacher or
independently then for day 2 they would bring their writing down and re craft
it together.
