My inquiry in a nutshell.....the more a teacher teaches, the less learners learn, so let us teachers lovingly do less so that learners can learn more

	Making teaching, learning and feedback visible and sharing NCEA L1 data with learners to inform my teaching practice so that there is a shift in academic achievement of Maori Learners
	50% of our Maori Learners achieved L1 Numeracy the previous year compared to our national decile equivalent of 68.7%. 2017 school target is 80%.
	NCEA L1 Maori learners in 1104MAT
	VTaL framework          Google calendar       Sharing data with learners       Goal setting        Literacy Strategies Teaching and learning strategies        Achievement objectives in “student speak”         Positive conversations Appreciation postcards                Communicating with whanau about how WE can best support the learner TOGETHER
	Communication with whanau about how best we could both support the learner for success. Both teacher and whanau had great faith in their ability to achieve. Learner efficacy improved as the quality and quantity of work met the requirements for NCEA L1 Constant reinforcement of teacher belief in learner ability
	"Every time you called my mum whether it was something good or bad it motivated me to do better in maths. The calls my mum received also helped me work harder to ask the teacher for help instead of acting like i know what im doing" Teacher Whanau Learner -talk less and give us more time to do our work -let me listen to music -Shes so positive and supports us better then most teachers. -keeping the wifi on at night so I can do late night studies -offer more support -do work -focus more -sit in the front of the class
