Direct Instruction
The learning intention for this lesson was to segment and underline unknown words in writing.
The video shows tamariki drawing on prior knowledge of the text structure they are currently working on.
Next, you will see a whole rōpū lesson using our stretchy gum technique. This is a fun way for tamariki to segment any unknown words in their writing and identify individual graphemes.
Finally, you will see an example of a tamaiti using an Explain Everything he made to show his morning routing. He is now listening to his recordings and writing his process in his writing book. He uses the stretchy gum technique when he comes across a kupu that he does not know how to spell.
