  11. We have gathered some walk-through data that suggests that students are not doing enough reading or writing on their own Reading is not done enough by the students themselves and writing is not their own writng but rather copying what the teachers give them What do you think?

  12. FILMING • Richard W and John P along with Alana Madgwick our facilitator from TEAM Solutions have been filmed • Two classes and four teachers have been filmed by COGNITION with a view to gathering evidence to show on LITERACY ONLINE about how the SLP operates when a class is targeted for a literacy intervention • Those classes and teachers are: • 10FTN • Sarah Mulcahy (English) and Margaret Sutton (Science) • 10SMP • Katie McColl(English) and Michelle Simpson (Social Studies)
