I’ve been absolutely delighted with every single student in 7X this morning.
After a very busy week due to our walk to Doncaster’s Hyde Park cemetery for fieldwork and two hectic Y6 Open Evenings on Wednesday and Thursday (which many students attended) we continued to work hard on the first draft of our reflection work on answering ‘What makes a successful Community?’
After weeks of learning about the different elements of Community, and an extended study assignment, students began to write a reflection piece in order to conclude and assess understanding of Case Study 1.
After a brief discussion, and with a break in between, students wrote continuously from 9:30am up until 12pm.
As highlighted on my blog post about 7P, being productive is an essential element of being a great learner, and ‘work hard’ is a key habit of work and learning at XP East.
I think a well earned rest is in order after a very productive week!
