Kwena Basin Education Trust: Project Visit, September 2016

Kwena Basic Education Trust

Focus of Visit 3

This will be the third and final visit to the project for the year.

The teacher training will continue with exposure to the last two conceptual domains of the programme: Number and Letter. The training will be over two days - one day per conceptual domain.

This will be followed by mentoring and support of the teachers in their classrooms. The class visits aim to help the teachers implement the mediation of the 'new' conceptual domains.

The project leader will also oversee data collection in the Foundation Phase classes at the project schools. This will involve the testing of approximately 300 learners. In addition, we will continue to gather data from Grade 4 learners at the project schools.

The final phase of data collection will be in 2017.

It was a weekend to remember… I had enough time to make plans for things at home. Thank you, it was a joy to listen to someone so passionate about his work.

It is a method of teaching…to establish the basic foundations or building blocks in order for children to make sense of the environment around them.

Christel House Training, July 2014

I love the programme. I was not aware of how to introduce a concept … . If I could reverse my years in teaching, I bet I would have produced mathematicians, scientists and doctors.
