Narrative Assessment - Literacy - 21 July 2015

Learner:  Sanad      Learning Coach: Miriam Kamsteeg                Date: 21 July 2015

Learning Area: Literacy - Writing

Learning Observed

Today I for writing I modelled a story. The Learners helped me find the words on the table tent first “I went to the…”. The last word was “supermarket”. We worked together to record down as many sounds as we could. We wrote “spmkt”. The Learners then had to write their own story of where they went. Sanad decided that he wanted to write “I went to my house”. He was unsure as to how to begin. I asked him if he could see the word “I” on the table tent. He said he could and wrote it down. Then we looked for the word “went”. He was able to write “to” all by himself. He then wrote “me” for “my”. He they asked for help on “house”. I asked him what sounds he could hear and he wrote them down.

Evidence of learning

Sanad is starting to record down beginning, middle and end sounds of tricky words. I wonder if he practises writing at home?

Key Competencies/Vision Principles

Sanad developing his Capabilities in Writing. He is starting to be able to record down words and letters independently (Managing Self). Sanad had decided what he wanted to write about before he started (Thinking). He is beginning to write stories (Using Language, Symbols and Texts).

Next Learning Steps
