Narrative Assessment - Mathematics - 23 Mar 2016

Learner: Sivkheng         Learning Coach:  Miriam Kamsteeg            Date: 23 Mar 2016

Learning Area: Mathematics - Numeracy

Learning Observed

Today Sivkheng completed a Gloss Numeracy Assessment with me. In the Addition and Subtraction part she used the strategy “counting on”. For the Multiplication and Division part she used the strategy “counting all”. In the Fractions and Proportions part she did not know a strategy to use to work out this problem.

Evidence of learning

Sivkheng did not need to look at the counters hiding under the paper to work out the problem. Instead she was able to use a counting on strategy in her head.

Key Competencies/Vision Principles

Sivkheng showed she was at Stage 4 for Addition and Subtraction, Stage 3 for Multiplication and Division and Stage 2-4 for Fractions and Proportions. She was able to recognise the numerals for the questions (Using Language, Symbols and Texts). Sivkheng is developing her Capabilities in Mathematics. She was able to Think of strategies in order to work out the math questions.

Next Learning Steps

Explicitly teach using making ten as a strategy for working out Addition and Subtraction problems. Explicitly teach skip- counting as a strategy for working out Multiplication and Division problems. Share Learning with home.
