Owen chose to write independently about an idea that was was important to him.  He used capital letters for the beginning of his sentence and also correctly spelled some high frequency words, e.g. play, with, go.  Owen used correct letter size and letter formation for most of his letters. Owen often writes about playing ball with his friend and is being encouraged to extend his idea by including who he played with, where he played and also other games that he likes to play.

Learning Area: Maths

Learning Observed

Today the Learners were learning to add two numbers together by finding the biggest number.  We tried to work out the problem by imaging the number in our head, then used a number line to check how many jumps we did to find the sum.

Evidence of learning

Owen was able to identify the biggest number and then rewrite the problem by writing the biggest number, then adding on the smaller number.   Owen then drew a number line to help solve the problem.

Key Competencies/Vision Principles

Owen is developing his Capabilities in Maths by learning this addition strategy.  He was able to work by himself and use equipment correctly to solve a problem (Managing Self and Thinking).  Owen is able to form his numbers correctly and understands number ordering up to 20 (Using Language, Symbols and Text).

Next Learning Steps

Teach this strategy to another Learner Use this strategy to add numbers greater than 20, e.g. 7+22= Share learning with home.
