Saw an interesting link on the Ministry of education website, to an activity about base two/binary. Except it was about exponents. Should have gone to In2Learning!

Introducing our hard-working Student of the Month

At high school, Hayley was having to work harder than everyone else to achieve similar results. After testing, it was identified that her brain had trouble processing light (Irlen’s syndrome) and sound (apd.) She completed the ten-hour Cellfield intervention, which boosted her reading age by more than 5 years. Irlen lenses now stop words moving on the page and an FM system helps her to hear the teacher over other noises in the classroom. Hayley has high goals, and now they are much more attainable.
Identifying and treating the barriers to learning have made learning much easier for Hayley. Throughout the process, she has continued to work hard, never giving up.

Did you know, in a recent study, about 50% of participants with both Irlen Syndrome and ADHD no longer met the criteria for an attention deficit diagnosis after they started wearing their Irlen Spectral Filters? Addressing the Irlen Syndrome with Spectral Filters eliminated the ADHD symptoms, suggesting a significant amount of misdiagnosis when understanding attention challenges among people with visual processing problems. (BarNir, A., Shaked, H., Elad, S., & Tosta, S., 2023)

Additionally, 64% of individuals with ADHD report visual sensory sensitivities, including issues with lights, reading difficulties, abnormal vision, and difficulty with lots of visual stimuli. (Wada, M., Hayashi, K., Seino, K., Ishii, N., Nawa, T., & Nishimaki, K., 2023)

Where do we start? There are so many failures in the education system, affecting every child.

The effect of NZ’s abysmal literacy and numeracy rates can be seen in employment, health and justice outcomes. Education policy must address improving in these basic skills.

Standardised tests aren't perfect but they do warn us there is something wrong in our school system. If we don’t like the results, we shouldn’t ignore the test data, writes Prof Gavin Brown
