  • Classroom StoriesIntroduction In this section, I aim to share classroom stories from around New Zealand that I think will interest and motivate other teachers.  Find below what I hope will become a growing list of different stories. Some will be stories of innovative literacy practice; some will be stories of progress and/or achievement by particular students; some will be reports of motivating lessons that I have observed. Some will be snippets of stories; others will be in-depth stories. Whatever the type or length of the stories, I will write them as ‘possibilities for other teachers’ to emulate. We can all learn from each other. If you think you’ve got a story worth telling from your school or classroom and you have some photos to go with it, please contact me via the contact page and let me know. I aim to make the range of stories as wide as possible in terms of year level and types of schools, and different contributions are very welcome.
