Mathematic's Narrative Assessment

Learner: Jenny, Tammy, Suri, Ameerah and Ella                Learning Coach: Mr Hattie                Date: 28 July 2015

Learning Area: Learning Habitat 2 - Numeracy

Learning Observed

Our aim in Mathematics for this lesson was to say the number that either come before or after the number on the dice. The trick was before the group could tell me the answer they had to check their learning with a buddy. This was getting the learners into the habitat of peer checking and checking their own work. This will allow them to ensure that they are not making careless mistakes in the working. Also it give them a chance to help each other out when they are struggling. When we were doing this activity Tammy was making sure that he always explained her reason why she gave that answer. Suri started off by calling out the answer but she quickly got the habit of discussing with her partner. Ameerah didn’t want to discuss, but when Jenny asked her what she thought Ameerah explained her answer. Jenny was great at encouraging others to contribute. Ella was very good at explaining the answer to those who struggled getting the answer this help those people to improve.

Evidence of learning

Key Competencies/Vision Principles

The Key Competencies that were being used in this lesson was “relating to other” as they had to be respectful of others opinion and take turns to explain their reason. Also if someone got the wrong answer they had to explain to them why the answer was wrong and not just tell them that they are wrong. Collaboration was being used in this task as they had to work together to answer the question. It was a competition and to get the points they all had to agree.

Next Learning Steps

The group’s next learning steps are to: instantly identify before and after to 20. identify before and after to 100.
