Ella's Writing Narrative Assessment

Narrative Assessment - Mathematics - 7 July 2016

Learner:  Ella         Learning Coach:   Megan Croll - LH2                Date:  7 July  2016

Learning Area:  Mathematics

Learning Observed

Today Ella and her maths group were learning to add three numbers together with Mrs Hooker.  They did this by rolling three dice, then using the best strategy to add the three numbers together - either by first adding two numbers together to make ten, or by using their known basic facts to first add two numbers, then the remaining number. Ella was eager to identify the numbers and use her basic fact knowledge to calculate the answer.

Evidence of learning

Ella joined in with a large group to play a maths addition game She carefully calculated the answer in her head Ella patiently waited her turn to share her answer

Key Competencies/Vision Principles

Ella Connected this game with prior knowledge by Thinking about and recalling the basic facts to solve the problems.  She was Capable of waiting for her turn (Managing Self) to share her answer; allowing others time to think and come up with their own answers. Ella is able to identify numbers and uses a clearer voice to share her ideas (Using Language, Symbols and Text).

Next Learning Steps

Teach this game to another Learner Share the way that he can solve number problems with another Learner Learn more addition strategies to support solving problems with larger numbers

16th May 2016 Narrative Assessment - Ella's Glowing Story

Narrative Assessment - iExperience - 30 March 2016

Learner:  Ella              Learning Coach:  Megan Croll           Date:  30 March 2016

Learning Area:  iExperience

Learning Observed

During an iExperience session, Ella and her group were learning about the life cycle of a butterfly.  They watched a short video, had a discussion and then were given a set of pictures to cut out and  glue into their iExperience book.

Evidence of learning

Ella demonstrated her understanding of the life cycle by gluing the pictures in the correct order.

Key Competencies/Vision Principles

Ella was connecting with others in her group when learning about the life cycle of the butterfly.  She was curious and asked questions to help with understanding.  Ella demonstrated managing self to independently cut out the pictures and glue them into her book within the time given by her Learning Coach.

Next Learning Steps

Narrative Assessment - Mathematics - 29 Feb 2016

Narrative Assessment - Literacy - 2 Nov 2015

Learner:  Ella                    Learning Coach:  Miriam Kamsteeg            Date: 2 Nov 2015

Learning Area: Literacy - Writing

Learning Observed

Today Ella was writing with me. She was able to draw her brainstorm for her story and then begin writing. We had a discussion about the word, “Halloween” and that many Learners wanted to write about it, so I recorded it on the board for them. Ella and I talked about how to spell “Mission Heights”. We sounded it out and she wrote down the sounds she could hear.

Evidence of learning

Ella is recording down many of the sounds she hears in her words. She heard the “sh” sound in Mission! I wonder if she is practising writing at home?

Key Competencies/Vision Principles

Ella is continuing to improve her Capabilities in Writing. She was able to create a story in her head and then record it (Thinking). Ella was able to settle quickly to write a story by herself (Managing Self). She was able to use many different letters to record sounds (Using Language, Symbols and Texts).

Next Learning Steps

Write 2 or more sentences Continue to record all the sounds she hears down Share learning with home.

Narrative Assessment - Math

Learner: Ella                    Learning Coach: Abby Morgan              Date: 3 June 2015

Learning Area: Math

Learning Observed

Our current math focus has been on developing learners ability to quickly solve addition problems using materials (counters) and imaging (solving it in their head). We began our math workshop by playing a new game. Each learner took a turn to roll the dice and we put the numbers into the first two hearts to create an equation. As I worked alongside Ella I noticed she was able to solve the equations with ease. I asked her to explain to me how she had solved the equation.Ella told me that she used the counters and when she had put the two groups together had counted on from the biggest number. After completing 6 questions as a group the learners went away and continued to solve the questions themselves.

Key Competencies/Vision Principles

During our math workshop Ella was demonstrating her ability to apply the Key Competencies of thinking and using language symbols and texts. She displayed thinking skills as she used materials to solve the math equations and used the correct math language and symbols to record her thinking. She was also showing the vision principle of capable.

Next Learning Steps

Provide Ella with a range of different types of questions to help her further develop this competency. Assist Ella in moving towards imaging the materials.

We Built this City!

Learner:  Ella       Learning Coach: Luisa Maloni    Date: 23rd  April, 2015

Learning Area: iExplore: We Built This City

Learning Observed

Due to the high interest in building structures out of the magnetic shapes, we have embarked upon an iExplore learning adventure designing and constructing a city out of cardboard. I observed that Ella used the cardboard and cardboard boxes thoughtfully and arranged them a number of ways - trying out ideas to suit her design.

Evidence of learning

Ella is able to try out a number of ideas for her building.

Key Competencies/Vision Principles

Ella shows Curiosity and creativity as she explores the materials she will use for her building (Thinking). She demonstrates her Capabilities in remaining focussed and thoughtful in working towards a goal (Managing Self).

Next Learning Steps

Develop her ideas about the purpose of structures as she designs and constructs her building. Can she describe her building using new or appropriate topic vocabulary? E.g. factory, apartment, skyscraper, offices etc...Can she show how her design includes modifications to suit the purpose of her building? E.g. one large space and a kitchen/storage area for a restaurant Discuss her ideas with peers and adults
