Narrative Assessment - Mathematics Numeracy - 2 June 2015



Learner: Armann           Learning Coach: Miriam Kamsteeg              Date: 2 June 2015
Learning Area: Mathematics - Numeracy
Learning Observed
Today we were practising counting to 16. We first started by counting together. Next the Learner had to get 16 objects from the box. They then had to count them back into the box.
Armann counted 15 objects, then James grabbed number 16 out of the box for him.
Next we rolled a 20 sided die and the Learners had to say the numeral that appeared on it.
Armann was able to recognise his roll of 14, but not 13 or 18.
Evidence of learning

Armann can one to one count to 15. I wonder if he can count to 16 by himself?
Key Competencies/Vision Principles
Armann is developing his Capabilities in one to one counting to 16. He is sequencing the numbers in his head in order to say them in the correct order (Thinking). Armann is starting to recognise numerals (Using Language, Symbols and Texts)
Next Learning Steps
  • Teaching of the correct number sequence to 17
  • Explicit teaching of the names of each written numeral
  • Share learning with home.

Narrative Assessment - Literacy - 12 May 2015


Learner: Scarlett, Armann, Ameerah      Learning Coach: Miriam Kamsteeg             Date: 12 May 2015
Learning Area: Literacy - Reading
Learning Observed
Today in Reading Scarlett and Armann choose to read “The Balloons” and Ameerah choose to read “The Kites”.
Scarlett was able to point to her first word and read by herself “the red balloon is going down”. Armann needed help pointing to the words and reading the words “the red balloon is going down”. Ameerah was able to point to the words and while we both read the words together “the green kite is going up”.
Scarlett showed that she had worked out the pattern of the words in the book and was able to read it without support. Armann and Ameerah continued to need support to read the words in the book.
Scarlett and Ameerah continued to point to each word and return sweep for the second line. Armann continued to need help to point to each word in the text.
Evidence of learning
Our favourite pages from our books!

We are learning to point to the words as we read. I wonder if the Learners remember to point to the words when reading at home?
Key Competencies/Vision Principles
Ameerah, Armann and Scarlett are developing their Capabilities in Reading. Scarlett had listened and looked at the pattern in the story to work out the words (Thinking). Armann, Ameerah and Scarlett are starting to read basic words (Using Language, Symbols and Texts).
Next Learning Steps
  • Share Learning with home
  • Continue explicit teaching of basic words.
Armann
  • Continue explicit teaching of finger pointing to each word and return sweep.
Ameerah and Scarlett
  • move to a reading group where they do not need so much support with finger pointing.
