Learning Coach: Stephanie Hooker          Date: 11 May 2016

Today during iDevelop our reading group worked together to recognise high frequency words in order to play Word Bingo. Learning these words develops reading skills and enables them to read books with confidence.

I wonder if they can play this game independently? Do they practice finding high frequency words in their reading books at home?

Key Competencies/Vision Principles
These learners worked together Collaboratively. Each learner showed skills in Participating and Contributing to share their knowledge with each other. They also showed their Capability in using Language, Symbols and Text.
Next Learning Steps
  • Practice high frequency words at home (Please use the Magenta Word List on our Learning Habitat website)
  • Continue to identify and read many known words, both in isolation and in books and other places
  • Use these skills on a daily basis to increase reading capability

Elham made Rapunzel’s tower. I wonder if she knows the story that goes with the tower?

Narrative Assessment - Maths - 18 Feb 2016


Learner: Elham                    Learning Coach: Talia Morgan        Date: 18 Feb 2016
Learning Area: Maths
Learning Observed
Today we have been learning to count to ten and make the number shown on the flip board, on the tens frame. We started with the flipboard, Miss Morgan uncovered one number and we had to read the number. Once we identified what number we could see on the flip board, we counted it out on the ten’s frame to make the number on the ten’s frame.  
Evidence of learning
Elham counted the number shown on the flip board and created the number shown on the ten’s frame.
Key Competencies/Vision Principles
Elham is developing her Capabilities in maths. She was able to keep looking back to the flipboard to help her remember what number to create on the tens frame (Managing Self). Elham used the number on the flipboard to guide her on the tens frame (Using Language, Symbols and Text). She demonstrated an understanding of how to create a number shown to her, on a tens frame (Thinking).
Next Learning Steps
  • Continue counting to ten often.
  • Continue counting to ten along numeral numbers so she can learn to identify the numerals.
  • Continue to create the number on tens frames.
  • Share learning with home.
