Narrative Assessment - Eye on Nature

Narrative Assessment - Eye on Nature

Learner:  Samantha                      Learning Coach:  Mrs Croll                      Date:  4 April 2017                       Learning Area:  Science

Learning Experience: On Tuesday 28th March, Samantha attended the Eye on Nature event at the Auckland Botanic Gardens.   The purpose of this trip was to provide Samantha with a variety of learning opportunities so that she may gain a deeper understanding and appreciation of the fundamental processes that support life on the planet and to become a guardian of her living environment. Samantha and her peers participated in a range of activities to promote an understand the relationships between people and the environment.

4Cs and Key Competencies: Collaborating with others to decide which food product came from which plant.   She also worked with a team to create a healthy lunchbox. Finding answers to her  curiosities through exploration, listening to experts and asking questions.   Samantha learned how to safely hold a fish, without causing it too much stress. Developing her capabilities as a scientist by grouping plants, animals and other living things into science-based classifications. Samantha learned about several  butterflies and their preferred habitat, as well as participating in a game to match the flower with the fruit, e.g. pea. Samantha learned how to make a ‘bug in the log’.  Through this, she was making  connections between healthy food and healthy bodies. Samantha went on a bush walk and was introduced to a variety of native birds and the trees.  She learned which trees the birds  liked to feed from and live in.

Next Steps: Share her learning with an audience, e.g. blog post, hui presentation Investigate an area of interest in an iExplore Support environmental activities around the school

Recycling Plastic

Learner: Samantha A                                  Date: 29th August, 2016 Learning Coach: Margaret Patrick                            Narrative Learning story

Learning Area:  iExplore-Recycling Plastic Rubbish

Learning Observed

We started Term 3 co-constructing an iExplore with the whole of Hopscotch Hapu.  A provocation including lots of objects and  images were displayed and the learners discussed possible connections.  They discovered they were all made of plastic or alternate products  that would normally be made of plastic. This sparked the learners curiosity about the problem plastic causes in our world. All the learners completed a KWL sheet writing what they knew about plastic rubbish and Samantha became curious about how she could recycle plastic and so her question was “ How can we use plastic in art?” She found that Sally was really interested too, so they collaborated  to decide on something they could make together. They started connecting with what other people had done with recycled plastic using google search. They decided to construct a wine glass using old plastic bottles. Samantha was a really positive role model for Sally demonstrating how she could use the OrmPS Learning Model iExplore sheets. Samantha  managed her time well and encouraged Sally along with Mrs Ben to record her evidence of learning in her Learning Model documents and in her pathway.  Samantha was a very competent, caring role model. Together their outcome was to come up with some really effective practical ways to reduce plastic in their homes and at school and they did that really well. (see link below).  Samantha was chosen to accompany Sally on a trip to the local warehouse to purchase some special art and stationery supplies. Sally was really excited about it. This came from them getting know oneanother while collaborating during this iExplore.

Evidence of learning

Outcome: How I can reduce plastic rubbish link

Next Learning Steps

*be able to complete first 2 sections of a  KWL more comprehensively. *feel confident to ask to collaborate with other learners if they share the same curiosity. *Seek out a really authentic outcome for your next inquiry.

Term 3 SMART goals

Learner: Anastasia, Angkor,  Rudi, Samantha, Melissa    Date: July T3, 2016 Learning Coach: Margaret Patrick                             Narrative Learning story

Learning Area: iExperience  Developing our capabilities

Learning Observed

During iExperience Week 1 Term 3 we were exploring what “being capable” means for us as learners and how we can develop our capabilities. The groups of learners experienced a range of fun tasks and their challenge was to participate and collaborate to improve their skills. This led to talking about setting goals to help us improve our capabilities. This group of learners set a goal to balance their spoons at the same time. After their rotation of different fun tasks the learners gathered together to think and discuss what being a capable learner would look like. They came up with these ideas: being independent; having an attitude of “I can do it”; being confident; being persistent and not giving up; trying things in different ways and self managing themselves. They also made the connections with ways they could develop your capabilities:  by training your brain by practicing and  remembering, trying your best, working hard, having an open mindset to try and learn new things and setting goals. They were  introduced to the SMART acronym to help with setting goals. The learners had time to think about the things they were capable at and then consider the areas they need to develop their capabilities in. The learners were then asked to think of 4 goals for themselves . An academic goal,a social goal, a physical goal and a #oresome goal.

Evidence of learning

Next Learning Steps

*complete writing an academic goal, social goal, physical goal and #oresome goal. *discuss these with their parents/whanau and caregivers. *publish them in their Learning Pathways. *present them on the art shapes they created.
