Dear Parents and Carers,

We are in the MVP process for creating a St Pat’s Learning Journal. MVP is a marketing strategy, namely the creation of a Minimum Viable Product. Quite simply you put together a product, send it to market to receive feedback and make improvements so that the ultimate product most closely meets the needs of the market!

We have created and collated some pages that support learners to know what it means to be a St Pat’s Kid. We hope that the journal will be a useful tool and space for all students and, hope to ultimately have levelled journals for junior, middle and senior students. The current MVP journal has two ends: one for information: one for student reflections, goals, achievements.

Three classes are in the first trial group of these journals. Here are a few pages from the journal that you may like to reference when speaking with your children about their day at school.

 

 

You can use the MVP strategy to support your child in their learning. When they are designing / creating / building etc you can ask them to get their idea to a stage where they can get some feedback and then use the feedback to improve their product.

A warm St Pat’s welcome to two new students Jack in Year 5 and Thomas in Year 3.

Blessings on a happy family weekend.

Jo
