Narrative Assessment - Mathematics - 1 May 2015

Learner: Taj  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. Taj counted out 13 items and when we counted them together he did have 13! When I asked him to make 13 he looked at Jolin’s number fan and made 31. I put the number fans next to each other and asked if they were the same. He reversed the numbers and made 13. He was also able to get 11 items. When I asked him to make 11 on the number fan he made 12.

Evidence of learning

Taj is one- to -one counting to 13. I wonder if he practises counting things at home?

Key Competencies/Vision Principles

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

Next Learning Steps

Explicit teaching the correct numerical sequence between 1-15. Continue to explicitly teach what the numerals look like. Share his learning with home.
