Congratulations to Joshua Mayion of 9 Ihumoana for completing his Writer's Toolbox Learning Journey!  

All Year 9 and 10 Waitākere College students have access to Writer's Toolbox, which is an online writing improvement platform, to build and improve their literacy skills.  There are 50 modules in the individualised Learning Journey for junior students to be working away at for homework and in some class sessions.  Each module focuses on an aspect of writing like sentence and paragraph types, language features, how to add more detail to writing etc.  Each module takes approximately 30-45 minutes to complete.  For Joshua to complete his Learning Journey before the end of Term Two, is an incredible feat.  Well done Joshua!  We encourage all Year 9 and 10 students to keep chipping away at their Learning Journeys in homework time.  Aiming to complete two or three modules a week will help ensure they finish by the end of the year.
