Learning Observed

Today Jaylen was caught doing some #Oresome learning! Darius was invited to work in a guided writing workshop with me and he quickly thought about what he wanted to write. He drew his picture to illustrate what he wanted to write. Jaylen wrote his story with support of learning coach and the alphabet cards and was determined to write it even though their were few high frequency words. Jaylen wrote “Five Nights At Frebby” - “Five Nights at Freddy's”.

Evidence of learning

Jaylen is showing his Capabilities in writing and determination to write about what he wants. What will he write about next?

Key Competencies/Vision Principles

Jaylen is developing his Capabilities in writing. He was able to independently think of his own story (Thinking) and with support was able to sound out how to spell the words, using the alphabet card (Managing Self). Jaylen sounded out the letter sounds he could hear and recorded them with support from Learning Coach, drawing a picture to illustrate his story (Using Language, Symbols and Text). He was supporting other learners to identify words and letters on the alphabet card and was ensuring everyone could see them (Relating to Others).

Next Learning Steps

Continue to sound out and record the main letter sounds in unfamiliar words. Continue to use alphabet card to help with writing high frequency words. Explicit teaching on letter direction and height. Share learning with home.
