Math Narrative Assessment

Learner: Louis        Learning Coach: Mr Hattie              Date: 17 September 2015

Learning Area: Learning Habitat Two - Mathematics

Learning Observed

In Mathematics we are learning about subtraction and addition. We have started by getting the learners understanding what it means to add or subtract by using materials while working out the answer. Since then the we are moving onto using counting on to help us. This is where you say a number in your head and count on from that number. With this lesson Louis was very quick at solving the ones that were knowledge and he was able to do this strategy. Once I saw how quickly he picked up the strategy we tried the same strategy on hard problems. This challenged him, but with a bit of practice he seemed to get the thinking of it.

Evidence of learning

Louis was solving the problem and then we wrote down the number equation.

Key Competencies/Vision Principles

Throughout this lesson the Key Competencies that Deesha was showing was “Thinking” as she tried and knew that she had to listen to the instructions again to make sure that she understands it. “Capability” was the vision principle that she was showing as Louis was developing his capabilities in math.

Next Learning Steps

Louis’s next learning steps are: adding and subtracting numbers to 5 instantly. applying the counting on strategy to higher numbers.
