Edward's Writing Narrative Assessment

Narrative Assessment - Maths - 12 September 2016

Learner: Edward       Learning Coach: Megan Croll - LH2         Date: 12 September 2016

Learning Area: Maths

Learning Observed

Edward has been learning about arrays - how to read them and how to write them.  This understanding of arrays will help Edward learn his multiplication facts and become a multiplicative thinker.  We are able to use arrays to support skip counting and also to understand that multiplication can be written in two ways, e.g. 2x6 = 6x2 (commutative property).   Eventually, Edward will be able to use arrays to help solve two digit multiplication problems.

Evidence of learning

Key Competencies/Vision Principles

Edward is demonstrating that he is: Capable of developing an understanding of how arrays work and how they can encourage skip counting in order to solve multiplication problems. Thinking about what he has been taught and then applying this new learning to complete a practise activity. Using Language, Symbols and Text  to record numbers to share an understanding about a series of dots (the array).

Next Learning Steps

Use this strategy to play a maths array game Apply this strategy to solve more difficult multiplication problems Support another Learner to understand how arrays work
