Welcome to Kerry Gray’s Professional Portfolio

When teaching, I create strong collaborative relationships with students and maintain a safe, friendly, stimulating and productive classroom conducive to student wellbeing and academic success. I apply a range of instructional strategies that address different learning styles, preferences and strengths. This allows me to effectively teach a challenging, high-quality differentiated curriculum.

Following a recommendation from Flinders University, I gained a full-time teaching position in 2020, immediately after completing a Master of Teaching. This was with a year 6/7 class at a complex site that required EALD, ATSI, disability and trauma informed practice. I enhanced the learning growth of students with diverse backgrounds and disabilities.

Since, I have worked at several sites as a full-time, part-time and relief teacher across several year levels and 2023 will be my fourth year of teaching. For the last 16 months I have worked at a Catholic site as a Year 5 and a Year 6 teacher respectively.

Aim:

This website uses the Edufolio platform to present my evidence against the AITSL professional standards for teachers.  It will showcase my teaching philosophy and evidence of reflections on teaching and learning as I move forward into the teaching profession.

How it works:

Choose a domain of the ATSIL standards from the top of the page. This will show you a list of posts that show evidence towards satisfying each of the 7 AITSL standards. These will include my teaching beliefs, reflections, impact on student learning and student work samples.
