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).

Ella's Writing Narrative
Learner: Ella Learning Coach: Mr Dyer Date: Week 3 - Term 1
| |||||||||
Learning Area: Writing
| |||||||||
Learning Observed
| |||||||||
We have hit the ground running and are already challenging ourselves to identify what makes writing effective and how we can capture this learning in our own writing. We have identified that our best writing comes from the heart and involves sharing our thoughts, wonderings and feelings about a particular subject. We have also begun exploring ‘Show’ not ‘Tell’ to develop imagery and depth in our writing, along with writing about our sensory responses to daily events. Finally, through selecting elements of Who, What, Why, When, Where and How, we can focus on different elements of our writing in more detail.
Ella has begun to use some of the above writing techniques to make their writing #Oresome! She has the opportunity to write every day, and is involved in our author’s circles where they can seek advice and share their writing with myself and other learners. They are also invited to respond to areas for development at various stages of the writing process. It will be exciting to see how their writing develops over the course of the year starting from the example below which was one of their first pieces of independent writing.
On a Friday, Ella contributes to our group blog. We share our thoughts, wonderings and feelings about the previous week and collaborate with the other writing groups before posting on our habitat blog. Be sure to check out these blogs when you can.

Evidence of learning
| |||||||||
This was Ella’s first effort at writing this year. It will be exciting to see how she progresses as the year goes on.
| |||||||||
Key Competencies/Vision Principles
| |||||||||
Ella has begun to show her capabilities in writing even at this early stage of the year. We are connecting with events from our lives to make writing real to us. We are doing a range of independent writing and more collaborative pieces.
| |||||||||
Next Learning Steps
| |||||||||
Ella should continue to write from the heart and visit the Author’s circle for regular input into her writing. She is encouraged to share their writing with family members and also with other audiences at school and home.This will give her a chance to receive authentic feedback that can be used to make their next piece of writing even better.

|
Learning Area: iActive
|
Learning Observed
|
Today I oversaw the iActive leaders on the “Octopus” game. The students from the school in the purple group were invited to play this game together. Learners were required to run from one end to the other without being caught. The focus for the game was connected playing - helping one another. Ella was a very connected player as she helped many other learners know when it was their turn to run.
|
Evidence of learning
|
Ella was a great connected player. I wonder if she can help others learn this game?
|
Key Competencies/Vision Principles
|
Ella is developing her Capabilities in iActive (physical education). She was able to help others learn how to play a game (Relating to others). Ella was eager to play herself, and she encouraged other learners to play as well (Participating and Contributing). She was helping others Think about when they should run. Ella was a good example to others of how to do Connected Playing.
