Narrative Assessment - Literacy - 24 April 2015

Learner:  Zsofia   Learning Coach: Miriam Kamsteeg   Date: 24 April 2015

Learning Area: Literacy - Reading

Learning Observed

Zsofia was reading with me today. We are focusing on "I can see" this week. I focused the Learners on the back page of their book where there was a word list. I asked the Learners to point to the words “I”, “can” and “see”. Zsofia was able to find all these words on the back page. I then asked the Learners to point to a word that was not in their story and tell me what it said. Zsofia pointed to the word "is" and said "is".

Evidence of learning

Zsofia was able to read a word that we had not been focusing on in the story. I wonder if she will still know these words next week?

Key Competencies/Vision Principles

Zsofia completed the Duncan High Frequency word test at the end of Term 1 she scored 2/24. She showed that she was listening to instructions and able to scan the words to find certain words (Thinking). Zsofia is developing her Capabilities in Reading. She is starting to connect print with words (Using Language, Symbols and Texts).

Next Learning Steps

Continue to explicitly teach Basic Sight Words. Continue to explicitly teach finger pointing to each word as she reads. Share her learning with home.
