Narrative Assessment: Marcus and Writing

Learner: Marcus
Area:Writing Level 2
Date: 31.10.18 
In Writing, we have been recounting our experiences. A recount is retelling a learner's experience from their own point of view. We have been learning to add in detail by using adjectives, verbs, feelings and emotions in our writing. Our hapu have been working hard to include at least three different words to paint a better picture for our audience.

Marcus is beginning to build simple sentences into paragraphs. He has been learning to add more detail and ideas into his writing. Marcus is beginning to show this by using examples of describing words, action words and feeling words in his writing.
He develops his curiosity by asking questions and is slowly making connections by using ideas discussed in a larger group. Marcus collaborates with others by sharing his ideas during hapu discussions. He is able to write for a purpose and is beginning to consider the audience in his writing.

Key Competencies: Managing Self Thinking Relating to others Participating and Contributing and through the use of digital tools - using language, symbols and texts 

Next Steps: 
Continue using detailed ideas in your writing
Reflect on your learning and think of how you can improve
Keep practising your writing at home

Narrative: Marcus and Maths

Learner: Marcus
Area: Maths Level 2
Date: 20.08.18 
In Maths, we have been learning about Fractions. We know that fractions are a part or piece of a whole. We have been learning to identify fractions of shapes and numbers. When trying to solve fractions of numbers, we have been using materials and the strategy of equal sharing.

Marcus is developing his capabilities by solving fraction problems by sharing materials into groups, in this case counters. He works collaboratively and listens carefully to others share their ideas. Marcus thinks about his ideas and is beginning to use addition and subtraction facts to help him solve basic fraction problems. He is beginning to make connections by using his basic facts knowledge to help him solve number problems. 

Key Competencies: Managing Self Thinking Relating to others Participating and Contributing and through the use of digital tools - using language, symbols and texts 

Next Steps: 
Continue developing your curiosity and connected skills. 
Continue to practice your knowledge using Mathletics.
Keep practising your basic facts knowledge to 10.
