Narrative Assessment - Maths - 10 May 2016

Learner:  Marcus         Learning Coach:   Megan Croll               Date:   10 May 2016

Learning Area:   Maths

Learning Observed

Marcus have been working on his number knowledge in Stage 4 which includes counting forwards and backwards to 100 in 2s, 5s and 10.   He has also been learning about place value for ones, tens and hundreds. We start most maths sessions with a number game and I was excited to see that Marcus and his friends were independently playing ‘Guess My Number’, one of the games that I had taught them.

Evidence of learning

Marcus was keeping his friends guessing his three digit number.   They had to correctly guess the number in the ones, tens and hundreds columns.

Key Competencies/Vision Principles

Marcus was collaborating with others to learn through this maths game.  He was enthusiastic and motivated to be the one that knew the number.   Marcus was able to relate to others by listening and respecting their suggestions, even when they were wrong.  He was managing self  by organising the equipment and space for the game; as well as making sure that all the Learners had a turn at guessing.

Next Learning Steps
