Manaiakalani is more than just us!
There are many outreach clusters that follow the Manaiakalani pedagogy throughout New Zealand.
The outreach cluster provide us the a wider network of people facing the same challenges, ideas and pedagogy. There are 5 outreach clusters with the outreach there are 50+ school 10,000+ learners and a huge community of whaunu.
These clusters knew they wanted to be involved they just wanted A Recipe to do this....
They see these as the Outreach actions outlined at joining Manaiakalani outreach. The Manaiakalani outreach PLD the support people and the resource they provide to the schools and clusters over there three year PLD. They also look to the Manaiakalani website and the Manaiakalani schools what are the schools and the teachers doing, exploring the learners blogs and professional blogs.
In the outreach the first year is about having pilot teacher who are excited volunteers who want to try new things. In year two all teachers move into a 1:1 environment and learn from the things learnt in the pilot. Year 3 is a time to continue growing and help new teachers to gain the skills they need.
There is also a blog that is used to collect examples of effective teaching that outreach clusters can explore. Check it out Sharing the Hook.
It is exciting that these communities are out there and I look forward to connecting more with them more.
Have a core purpose that is shared draws us together.
