Katara is Blown Away!

Adding Fractions Narrative Assessment

Learner: Katara                 Learning Coach: T Morgan              Date: 15th June 2016

Learning Area: iDevelop - Maths

Learning Observed

Today after a 20 minute learning workshop on adding fractions with common denominators, Katara chose to complete a follow up worksheet. She was able to independently complete the worksheet, adding fractions with common denominators (e.g. 2/7 + 5/7 + 2/7 = 9/7).

Evidence of learning

Katara was able to independently add “like” fractions. Can she identify the improper fractions next?

Key Competencies/Vision Principles

Katara is developing her Capabilities in Maths. She chose to independently complete the follow up task for fractions in learning time and in one day (Managing Self, Participating and Contributing). Katara was able to Think about fractions and add 2 or more fractions with common denominators (Using Language, Symbols and Text).

Next Learning Steps

Identify improper fractions. Add fractions with different denominators. Share learning with home.

Narrative Assessment - iExperience - 30 March 2016

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

Learning Area:  iExperience

Learning Observed

During an iExperience session, Katara 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

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

Key Competencies/Vision Principles

Katara 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.  Katara demonstrated managing self to independently cut out the pictures and glue them into her book within the time given by her Learning Coach.

Narrative Assessment - Mathematics - 23 Mar 2016

Learner: Katara         Learning Coach:  Miriam Kamsteeg            Date: 23 Mar 2016

Learning Area: Mathematics - Numeracy

Learning Observed

Today Katara completed a Gloss Numeracy Assessment with me. In the Addition and Subtraction part she used the strategy “counting on”. For the Multiplication and Division part she used the strategy “counting all”. In the Fractions and Proportions part she did not know a strategy to use to work out this problem.

Evidence of learning

Katara did not need to look at the counters hiding under the paper to work out the problem. Instead she was able to use a counting on strategy in her head.

Key Competencies/Vision Principles

Katara showed she was at Stage 4 for Addition and Subtraction, Stage 3 for Multiplication and Division and Stage 2-4 for Fractions and Proportions. She was able to recognise the numerals for the questions (Using Language, Symbols and Texts). Katara is developing her Capabilities in Mathematics. She was able to Think of strategies in order to work out the math questions.

Next Learning Steps

Explicitly teach using making ten as a strategy for working out Addition and Subtraction problems. Explicitly teach skip- counting as a strategy for working out Multiplication and Division problems. Share Learning with home.
