Key Competencies by Miria

They are very important in Room 12. As a matter of fact they are important for the whole of Ruapotaka School. Teachers expect students to use all 5 key competencies to help you through your school years. They might seem dumb but they actually play a very big part in our lives. For example “Thinking” and “Managing” yourself and be work wise can help with your education. 

 “Thinking” is how you find information, improving it, reflecting, being creative and gathering ideas. 
“Managing Self” is how you use your time in class. So this is like managing your time in class and at home and making goals that you can achieve in the future. 
“Using Language, Symbols and Texts” is how you share your work with others in different ways. 
“Participating and Contributing”  is when you take on responsibilities confidently when you are in a group. Joining in and being fair. 
“Relating to Others” is how you mix in with people and interact with others. 

Do you have key competencies in your classroom? You could ask your principal if you can have all 5 on a wall reminding students how to behave and act. We have ours on our wall.
