Inquiry Story Hui

Today I shared my inquiry with staff around the story hui format. I had 5 minutes to talk through my inquiry. What I have been doing at the beginning, middle and end? Giving myself a chance to reflect back on what learning is happening and what is working and not working in my inquiry.

As a reflection I got some student voice from my inquiry and asked these three questions here is some of the responses.


  • What do you learn when you come and work with me? Am more focused during small group time, learn more things that we didn’t know, 
  • Why is it helpful when you work with the teacher? Because sometimes you teach us something we haven’t learnt, would be hard without the teacher, teach skills and goals so we get better at our goals, we tell you the goals we need to work on and we focus on that during group time, 
  • What do you think about working with me in a small group? Fantastic, do more, not distracted, so we can learn and sometimes we can learn something that we don’t know, bigger words we can learn, practise skills we didn’t know before, if we have a small group we won’t be bored it’s fun. 

I reflected back and think that I need to set up more models and vocabulary set up on the walls so that students can look back on this when they need to.
