Narrative Assessment 11th Feb 2016 - Literacy

Learner:  Kaka                   Learning Coach:  Talia Morgan       Date: 11 Feb 2016

Learning Area: Literacy - Writing

Learning Observed

Today I invited the learners to write a story about something they were feeling. We practised writing “I am” and we found these words on the word card, and said which colour box the words were in. We then talked about finding the initial letter of the feeling by sounding the first letter out. Kaka then sat with the teacher for guidance to write his story. Kaka asked how to spell his name but was guided he could do it and when told the letter K-a-k-a was able to write it. Kaka drew his own picture about a train.

Evidence of learning

Kaka was able to write his name. I wonder if he practised his writing in the holidays?

Key Competencies/Vision Principles

Kaka is developing his Capabilities in his writing. He was able to work by himself to write his name (Managing Self). Kaka is starting to form his letters correctly and listen to the sounds they make when recording them (Using language, symbols and text). He was able to Think of his own story and draw it.

Next Learning Steps

Explicit teaching of finding the basic words on the word card. Explicit teaching of finding the sounds of initial letters on the word card to record for a story. Continue to teach correct letter formation. Share learning with home.
