LEARNING RESOURCES

WORKBOOKLETS

Supporting Learning Resources (SLR) workbooklets support students working within L1-4 of curriculum levels and offer much needed literacy, numeracy, social, thinking and practical skills.  The workbooklets are either thematic/skills focused or subject support focus and are filled with engaging tasks.

WORKSHEETS

A selection of one page worksheets focusing on skills within a theme bundled up in packs of five or ten.  Perfect for use in everyday teaching, cover/relief lessons, wet weather days or as a life saver in an emergency.  Ready to use, just select a bundle and watch your students learn!

 

L1  & L2  ASSESSMENTS

SLR has developed relevant & engaging blended assessment packages for Level 1-2 linking common standards into themes to fit within curriculum frameworks or with IEP's.  There are a range of ways to deliver different packages that schools can customise to fit their learning programmes. This ensures skills & resources are linked together to make sense for educators & learners and are easy to follow.

  • What makes supporting learning resources different?
    All our material has been developed from teachers, schools and parents asking us for resources at the right level for the right students. SL resources are easy to use, easy to follow and easy to recognise key skills and knowledge. We write the tasks in age-appropriate language that has plenty of visuals and great layout to ensure the tasks are quick and engaging. Supporting learning resources weave in important literacy, numeracy, thinking, social and problem solving skills into each booklet or theme ... and tasks are scaffolded to extend students up into the next range or onto NCEA or L1 packages. Each SLR booklet has a learning checklist and feedback at the back that can be used for IEP/ILP's.
  • Why do supporting learning resources appeal to so many schools and staff?
    Because they are simple, affordable, flexible and make sense! SLR has a range of workbooklets that can be mixed and matched to support subjects, focus on skills or meet an individual need of a student. These can be used as stand-alone booklets, or build skills together to create themes. SLR also offers a range of L1 and L2 assessment options to make sure the booklets have a pathway and that students who need support are offered the chance to gain credits like their peers, in formats that are visual, focused and practical. Booklets are a one-off $45 for the .pdf which can be used over and over again within a school, and L1 or L2 packages also have a free update when versions are reviewed ... a great return on your investment.
  • How do we decide what material to develop?
    Everything we write or design comes from requests to look into areas that are lacking appropriate resources. We survey schools and meet regional staff to establish a demand, and work with curriclum documents to link ideas, resources, styles and topics. The SLR Social Studies, Science and One Plus booklets are great examples of "need-driven" development to support subject and curriculums with topical material.
  • Can supporting learning material be used digitally?
    Of course. Every time we upload an order, we add a reminder that SLR material is either best used with a .pdf writer or as printed material. The .pdf writer ensures the SLR quality and formatting remains the same so as not to confuse students, that images, spaces for typing/writing, activities are not changed and students can add text, draw lines, add pics, highlight, checklist etc. We even have a document you can download to get some ideas. Alternatively, printing off the .pdf booklet as a paper copy also has benefits. Students can quickly see a start and end point, they can flick pages to see other tasks, they can move the booklet easily between staff and rooms and of course, a printed booklet doesn't rely on technology each day! Note: you cannot change our digital material without our approval to esnure that the SLR brand is always high qualty, and of course, you shouldn't change any NCEA or L1 or L2 assessment material (this would mean it has no longer been moderated and it may not meet NZQA standards).
  • How are SLR assessments marked for NCEA?
    The same way most subjects mark! A school normally has NZQA "consent to assess" different domains, which means you are good to go for packages that contribute to NCEA L1 or L2. We often suggest the person working closest to the student is the "marker" or assessor as they are most familiar with what a student is thinking and how they have answered. This could be a TA/LA or class teacher. They check each task and answer has been completed (if something is missing, it will be a not-achieved as an evidence requirement or performance criteria will not have been met). They check it is legible, evidence is attached where asked for (this may be a photo, recording, brochure, artwork, notes etc.), that the assessor checklist at the front of the candidate material has been completed and the assessment result box at the back has been signed. Another teacher or equivalent then checks the assessor marking and rechecks the student answers (they are called the 'verifier'). Once that is all accurate and complete, a student can be awarded the credits if they have meet the standard. The school then files the student material in case it is needed for NZQA moderation in the future. There are more details about this process are on our FAQs page. Note, NZ Certificates are different than NCEA.
  • How can I order a SLR booklet or assessment package?
    Simply email us the title you want or give us a call and we will do the rest within hours! If you have an order number include it, but if not, we still email out the invoice to you for you to pass along to your finance team within the 30 day payment period. - Workbooklets are uploaded and you are emailed the file links. - L1 and L2 assessment packages are customised with your logo and organisation name, uploaded and you are emailed the file links. - Any updates are uploaded and you are emailed a notification to replace your files.

ABOUT SLR

Our Co-Directors, have over 50 years education experience and our writing/support team even more!

 

We want educators focusing on the important parts of teaching ... building relationships with our youth (rather than creating resources and assessments). Which is why the Supporting Learning resources are visual, active, practical, stylish and affordable.  

 

We know one tool or one resource doesn't suit every learner so Supporting Learning aims to provide what you need, when you need it.  We enhance existing programmes and help develop new ones.  We support you so you can support your students and learning communities.

 

We believe "education for all" and "success for all" is worth focusing on ... so that's what we are doing!
