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 Tammy had a bit of trouble starting off as she started from the number but then counted the other number as a separate number. She was unsure of what she was suppose to be doing. Tammy was just instantly saying the ones she new and notattempting the ones she didn’t. With a bit of encouragement she opened up made it clear that she was trying the strategy that we were practicing.

Evidence of learning

Tammy solving the problem. We discussed what the problem looks like as a number problem.

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 Tammy was developing her capabilities in math.

Next Learning Steps

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