Narrative Assessment 10th Feb 2016 - Literacy

Learner:  Matthew                   Learning Coach:  Talia Morgan       Date: 10 Feb 2016

Learning Area: Literacy - Writing

Learning Observed

Today I invited the learners to write a story about an action they liked doing. 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 action we liked doing by sounding the first letter out. Matthew then went off by himself to write his own story. Matthew wrote his name (Matthew). Matthew explained his drawing was his story - a girl and a boy with a heart and people trying to stop them.

Evidence of learning

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

Key Competencies/Vision Principles

Matthew is developing his Capabilities in his writing. He was able to work by himself to write his name (Managing Self). Matthew 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

Continue to teach finding the basic words on the word card. Continue to teach 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.
