Story Writing

Human Knot Narrative

Learner: Jiani, Charlotte, Nanami, Sally, Towai and Vivian      Learning Coach: Mr Hattie          Date: 5 July 2016

Learning Area: Learning Habitat 1 - iExperience Human Knot

Learning Observed

Today for to celebrate our Collaboration theme for the term we played a collaboration game. We played “Human Knot”, this is where there is a group of people and the group are all connected with their hands. They have untangle themselves without letting go of their hands. Jiani, Charlotte, Nanami, Sally, Towai and Vivian  were in a group together. Once they got to start they all instantly had the Capabilities for this task. They discussed what they thought they needed to do. Charlotte and Towai were offering advice about who needed to go under the arm and who needed to go over. Sally, Jiani, Vivian and Nanami were very good at listening and offering instructions. The whole group obviously develop very strong Collaboration Capabilities as they completed the task with ease.  The whole group show the Key Competency of Participating with others.

Evidence of learning

The group is working together and they managed to figure it out.

Next Learning Steps

Jiani, Charlotte, Nanami, Sally, Towai and Vivian’s next learning steps are to: Use collaboration to achieve task in the Habitat. Write a reflection about their Collaboration Task.

Jiani's Reading Learning Story

Learner: Jiani Learning Coach: T.Dillner           Date: 2.3.16

Learning Area: iDevelop - Reading           Key Competency: Using Language, Symbols and Text

Learning Observed

Jiani’s group had been learning about identifying the characters and writing about why that was so. Jiani followed the instructions and prompts, successfully identifying who her favourite character was and recording this in writing. She showed a developing curiosity in the text by outlining why that character was her favourite and can work on adding more detail to this in the future. Jiani was capable of completing this in the given time frame and used her time well which is a positive outcome for her.

Next Learning Steps

Be more precise in explaining ideas e.g. ‘the little monster said what is it’ - what does ‘it’ refer to? Get a Learning Book so this learning will be permanently kept.

Math Narrative Assessment

Learner: Jiani     Learning Coach: Mr Hattie          Date:1 March 2016

Learning Area: Learning Habitat 1 - Mathematics

Learning Observed

In mathematics we have been looking at fractions and finding fractions from a set of materials. When we first looked at this Jiani struggled to grasp the concept that fractions are groups and parts of a whole. We started to use the Unifix Cubes to show the breaking a whole into small groups. The question was break your 12 cubes into quarters. Each learner started off by putting the cubes in groups of 4. This is a common misconception. We then looked at what a quarter is and how to break up a square into quarters. Jiani then realised that she had the wrong about of groups and started to change his answer. After this whatever number of Unifix Cubes I gave her she was able to split them into 4 groups (quarters). Jiain showed Capabilities as they changed the her thinking and develop her understanding. She used the Key Competency of Thinking as she had to think about the mathematical symbols and how to apply them to manipulate the cubes. .

Next Learning Steps

Jiani’s next learning step is: find basic fraction of a specific number identify complex fraction
