Poutama Ako is a behaviour system used throughout Parkview School. Students are at various stages of Poutama Ako dependent on their ability to self-manage.
Using and referring to it in my class sounds like:
"I love the way..... is managing herself to get a pencil and get straight onto her work that is showing Poutama toru"
"Well done for managing yourself on the mat .... you are showing me Poutama toru"
"When you go to your desk without a pencil, don't get onto your work and interrupt our working time you are showing me you cannot manage yourself. That is Poutama tahi behaviour"
Week 10 Term 1. I have found that I have slipped a little bit on referring to the Poutama Ako steps. I need to come back and re-introduce Poutama Ako and the steps as I have had many new children start school.
