Welcome back to another year of learning at Foxwell!

This term in Year 7 and 8 Enrich, we have been familiarising students with the school environment and completing a range of activities to support our them in their learning. 

One strategy students have been engaging with is the Mood Meter – a way to identify our emotions and then consider strategies to help us learn best, depending on our mood. Students will continue to engage in a range of activities to help them Unwind, Unstick or Undo – effective ways to self-regulate emotions in different situations.

Students have also received access to their Term 1 Assessment Calendars to assist them in planning their time. We have recently learned about how ‘chunking’ work helps us to improve our memory. Please see the video link below to learn more about ‘chunking’ and how it can be used as an effective learning/study tool:
