Julie Russell found night-zookeeper:

• Significantly improves teaching efficiency and productivity“Lessons for specific needs/skills”
• Moderately improves behaviour or wellbeing“increases student engagement so there's less time for off-task behavior; used as reward for good behavior”
• Significantly improves attainment“reaching different NZK levels; reaching personal goals in writing (evident in their writing)”
• Significantly increases student collaboration“Students will sometimes work together on their writing. They like to talk about the animals they have created or collected. ”
• Significantly reduces attainment gap“Writing has been an overall weakness in our school. Since using NZK, our scores have begun to climb. Last year, 68% of our students met or exceeded standards in writing.”
