Learning Area: Literacy

Learning Observed

Harman was working with the "Alphabet Soup Cans". She showed me that she had a unicorn picture. I asked her if she could find the "u" can to put the picture in. She then found it and also found some more "u" pictures - "uniform" and "unicycle" and put them in the "u" can as well. Then she showed me that she had found the "c" can and had put in"cookie", "cow" and "cat".

Evidence of learning

Harman linked the sound with the letter. I wonder how many sounds she knows?

Key Competencies/Vision Principles

Harman scored 51/ 54 on the Letter Identification Assessment and 3 years 8 months on the Oral Language Assessment. She was able to listen and follow instructions in order to develop her capabilities to learn to play the “Alphabet Soup Can” game. Harman was able to continue a task by herself (Managing Self). She was able to match the sound with the letter (Using Language, Symbols and Texts).

Next Learning Steps
