• Explain The Difference Between Equality And Diversity

I have worked with a variety of students; however, I feel that I could still improve on making my practice more relevant to the individual students in my class

Communicate more with families to better understand the students’ background and how to accommodate for their learning needs.

Get support persons and agencies to help where applicable.

Currently I have very little experience working with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students, I do not have much knowledge and resources to accommodate for learning needs.

Attend any workshops that will help me better understand my students and their education.

Work with any Indigenous agencies where possible.

Communicate with families and the Indigenous community in order to develop my understanding.

I need to implement a range of strategies for involving families in the education process.

I must gain confidence to communicate with parents and follow through with any strategies I come up with to involve parents. For example, the use of a communication diary between the teacher and family, and having programs that invite parents to volunteer in the learning.

I need to develop a student-friendly vocabulary that is clear and concise for students to understand and follow instructions correctly.

There are books in the ACU library that has phrases to use when instructing students which I could read and use. Ask students if my directions are clear before allowing students to proceed.

Currently I have list of strategies on managing challenging behaviour, however, I lack the confidence and assertiveness to put some of those strategies into practice.

Use the PLTs as support.

Practice being more assertive and confident within the classroom.

Attend PD days if necessary.

Learn by doing

I need to utilise all forms of assessment, not just summative.
