Professional Development 2012
Stephen Graham
Stephen Graham is an educator with a wealth of teaching experience. He is a truly inspirational presenter who is passionate about educating children. Stephen lives in the real world and knows the issues confronting educators. He has visited Wairarapa for the last three years and schools and teachers who have utilised his time are keen to work with him again.
Wairarapa REAP will run sessions with Stephen in schools during the school day, and after-school sessions (4.15 – 6.00 pm) for teachers from other schools.
The workshops will be a continuation of the learning’s in 2011. If you have supplied your email address during 2011’s workshops then you will be contacted directly during Term 1.
Programmes will be available in North, Central and South regions and exact locations will be confirmed for 6-10 August 2012.
Phonics Training with Yolanda Soryl
An inspiring and motivational speaker, Yolanda's training delivery is grounded in her extensive teaching experience and best practice. She is deeply committed to supporting children to achieve the greatest success in reading and writing.
We will also be offering two workshops with Yolanda Soryl on Phonics Training, these will be taking place on the 31st July and the 1st August.
Hands-on-Science
This will be a practical hands-on opportunity to practice science in action. The workshops will be a continuation on the workshops delivered in 2011.
The aim of this opportunity is to ensure teachers are confident to include some practical science activities that students can do themselves, rather than as demonstrations.
Our experienced tutor will also be able to assist teachers with ‘Planning Science Around the Curriculum.’
