Learning+Portfolios

**Learning Portfolio Essential Elements**:

An introductory 'About Me' section is an important part of a learning portfolio. It should include:
Individual goals: Think about these carefully. You should have goals which are SOCIAL (concerned with behaviours) and goals about KNOWLEDGE you wish to build (understandings). These will help you determine the ACTIONS required to fulfill your GOALS

Attitudes: Reflect on your current attitude to: family, friends, school (all your subjects) and life in general. Is there room for personal growth and change?

Skills: Focus on skills you have and skills you wish to develop. How will you proceed to develop your skills?

Learning & Thinking preferences: We will complete two class activities to help you identify these. The 'tricky' part will be writing about them and planning ways to make the most of what you learn about yourself

Portfolio Presentation: See sample pages for ideas. You can be creative. You should include visuals and writing:Eg: A photo with caption, a collage with explanatory notes, a 'comic style' discussion to highlight an event, a graph or brainstorming chart. (The possibilities are only limited by your imagination AND the fact that you do actually have to include the information above.)
