Testing The Hunch - Development Of Language In Maths

Hunch part 1.

I am seeking to raise achievement in writing, reading and maths this year by targeting methods
which students may identify the necessary features, language and audiences especially in their
writing. So far, I have noticed a small shift in approaching our writing from a stance of planning
based on audience and needs of the text. Conversations around their learning, especially in
writing, seem to surround complying or asking for answers rather than seeking clarification.
This gives me a hunch that they haven’t had much critical voice in their learning.
