Namaqua Education District (Phase 2): Second Visit To The Project, August 2016

Monday, August 15, 2016 - 08:00 to Friday, August 19, 2016 - 16:00

Part of the Project

Namaqua Education District, Northern Cape (Phase 2)

Continuation of Training and a Mentoring Visit

We will continue with the training of the 30 Grade R teachers as well as of the 14 Provincial ECD officials.

The training will focus on the conceptual domains of Size and Position.

There will be follow-up mentoring visits to the teachers in their classes after the training on the first and second day of the visit to the project.

The ECD Officials will also accompany me to the classrooms where I will model the approach that we use to mentor the teachers.

Once the ECD officials have returned to their districts they will be expected to continue with the implementation of the programme, now with a focus on the conceptual domains of Size and Position.

See a full report on the visit below.

Thank you Louis for you dedication and enthusiasm. We need our teachers to be enthused with a love of children and a passion for mediating to our learners. God Bless.

My concern about my learners’ language barriers and how to overcome these barriers has been solved for me.

We were taught the theory as well as the practice. I now feel confident to start to implement the programme with my class and even with my nieces and nephews.

The BCP focuses on the learner… where the teacher acts as a mediator, prompts to access logical thinking and develops language.

Ek waardeer alles wat Dr Louis ons geleer het. Daar is soveel dinge wat ek nie geweet het nie, bv. hoe om ons kinders te help leer. You are a star, thank you for your time.

Pixley Kaseme: Training Sessions 1+2

Before the workshop I thought (that) I knew how to teach or introduce my lessons, but now I know that I was not doing justice to my learners. I took them for granted ... as if (they would) very easily understand my instructions.
