4th May 2016 - Writing Narrative Assessment

Learner: Ayod                 Learning Coach: Talia Morgan                       Date: 4th May 2016

Learning Area: iDevelop - Writing

Learning Observed

Today after reading a book about Piranhas, Ayod and some other learners decided they would like to do some more research and find more out about them. We watched videos about Piranhas and how sharp their teeth are and had a look at some books on Piranhas. After modelling a story together, Ayod then wrote a story about what he had learnt about Piranhas. Ayod wrote: “Piranhas haVe sharP teeth”, all by himself.

Evidence of learning

Ayod learnt that Piranhas have sharp teeth. Ask Ayod just how sharp they are!

Key Competencies/Vision Principles

Ayod was developing his curiosity about Piranhas and other sea creatures, whilst also developing his capabilities in writing. He was able to write his story by himself, without any learning coach assistance (Managing Self). Ayod was able to write his own story, starting with a capital letter and ending with a full stop (Using language, symbols and text). He was able to think about and share his ideas about what he would like to write (Participating and Contributing).
