Narrative Assessment - iExperience Soccer Skills

Learner: Kaiariki                 Learning Coach: Mr Hattie             Date: 21 July 2015

Learning Area: Learning Habitat two - iExperience

Learning Observed

For iExperience we are playing soccer. We are developing our capabilities in collaboration through team sports. In this session we were learning to pass the ball to a buddy and ‘Trap’ the ball. ‘Trapping’ is when you stop the ball rolling by placing your foot on top of the ball. This skill is to help gain control of the ball before you pass. Kaiariki in this session showed great capabilities. At the start of the session she struggled with this skill as it is a new skill that she was learning. But by the end of the session she was able to trap the ball for control and pass the ball to her buddy with the correct part of her foot.

Evidence of learning

Kaiariki is making sure that she using the correct part of her foot to kick the ball with.

Key Competencies/Vision Principles

During this session Kaiariki was showing the Key Competency “Relating to others” as she was participating in a group activity with a person who may have picked up the skill either faster or slower than them. She had to help, encourage and work with her partner. Kaiariki was showing “Capabilities” as these skills were new to her and she had to develop them during the session. Also “Collaborative” was being shown as during the session she was working the whole time with a buddy.

Next Learning Steps

Kaiariki next learning steps are: to use these new skills during a practical situation. to be able to perform these skills while moving.

Narrative Assessment - Literacy: Writing

Learner: Kaiariki                    Learning Coach: Abby Morgan             Date: 2 June 2015

Learning Area: Literacy - Writing

Learning Observed

Our writing focus today was about creating recounts about our weekend. Together the learners discussed their weekend and identified what they wanted to write about. I was working alongside Kaiariki to identify the keywords that were needed to add to her story about going to the movies. She was able to tell me lots about her weekend and seeing Sivkheng. Together we created a success criteria (what I need to have to be successful) and Kaiariki suggested that we need to include finger spaces and capital letters as part of our to be successful list. Kaiariki went away and began writing. When she returned we read her work together checking the success criteria as we went. Kaiariki had monitored her writing to ensure she was including all the required elements and had correctly used all four of our success criteria! Great managing self learning Kaiariki!

Evidence of learning

Kaiariki came up with 2 of the 4 ‘must haves’ on our success criteria.

Key Competencies/Vision Principles

Kaiariki has been developing the school vision principle of capable as she has spent time working towards developing both new and existing skills. She has also be displaying the key competencies of managing self, thinking and using language, symbols and texts. Kaiariki has displayed thinking skills as she recalls and extends her knowledge about writing (using language, symbols and texts) and has demonstrated her ability to manage her learning through the success criteria.

Next Learning Steps

Extend Kakarikis knowledge of different writing purposes and types Introduce Kaiariki to different tools for publishing her work Add unknown frequently used words to her personal dictionary

Narrative Assessment - iExperience - Physical Education - 26 May 2015

Learner: Kaiariki                  Learning Coach: Miriam Kamsteeg     Date: 26 May 2015

Learning Area: iExperience - Physical Education (PE)

Learning Observed

Today in PE we were learning to throw overarm. Kaiariki had to step forward with the foot opposite to her throwing arm. Then take her throwing shoulder back and point her non throwing arm where she wanted to throw the ball. Today we were aiming at the cricket wicket.

Evidence of learning

Kaiariki was able to hit the target. I wonder if she can still hit the target from further back?

Key Competencies/Vision Principles

Kaiariki showed that she is developing her Capabilities in throwing overarm. She was working Collaboratively as she was taking turns at this activity. Kaiariki was actively participating in this task (Participating and Contributing). She was carefully aiming the ball at the target (Thinking).

Next Learning Steps

Stand up straight when throwing Try going further away from the target Practise catching a tennis ball

Narrative Assessment - Mathematics - 1 May 2015

Learner: Kaiariki   Learning Coach: Miriam Kamsteeg      Date: 1 May 2015

Learning Area: Mathematics - Numeracy

Learning Observed

Today in Mathematics we were working on getting 13, making it on the number fan and getting 11 and making it on the number fan. Kaiariki counted out 13 items and when we counted them together she did have 13! However when I asked her to get 11 items she only counted out 9. She was unable to make 13 on the number fan, however when asked to make 11, she knew that it was 1 plus a 1 and corrected another Learner who had made 12 instead of 11.

Evidence of learning

Kaiariki is starting to one- to -one count to 13. I wonder if she practises counting things at home?

Key Competencies/Vision Principles

Kaiariki is developing her Capabilities in counting numerals in the correct sequence. She is Connecting the spoken number with the written form of the number (Using Language, Symbols and Text).

Next Learning Steps

Continue to explicitly teach the correct numerical sequence between 1-13. Continue to explicitly teach one-to-one counting. Share her learning with home.
