Junior Assessment of Maths (JAM Test)

Learner: Jona      Learning Coach: Luisa Maloni            Date: 13th Oct 2015

Learning Area: Mathematics- JAM Assessment

Learning Observed

Today Jona completed the Junior Assessment of Maths (JAM Test). He was able to show small improvements in his knowledge and strategy. He can now identify numbers to 1000 and can name all but one of the numbers after any number to 1000. He can count beyond 100 but has difficulty counting backwards from numbers over 30. He also has difficulty identifying the number before any number between 30 and 100. Jona made the largest gain moving from Stage 0-1 up to Early Stage 5 in the area of Fractions. He can name and match simple fractions with images of these fractions. Jona was unable to instantly recall basic facts up to 10 except for 3+3.

Evidence of learning

Jona is building vocabulary in maths. He is growing in confidence in using numbers over 100. I wonder if he enjoys games that involve counting or adding at home?

Key Competencies/Vision Principles

Jona is developing his Capabilities in Mathematics. He can identify fractions and match them to fractions of a region. He Uses Language, Symbols and Text to describe shapes using mathematical language, e.g. corners and sides. His test shows he is working from Stage 0-1 (Basic Fact Knowledge, Place Value Knowledge) up to Early Stage 5 (Faction Knowledge). His strategy Stage is Stage 3. This means to solve simple addition and subtraction problems he counts forwards and backwards or from one in his head (imaging). (Thinking)

Next Learning Steps

Know addition and subtraction facts to 5 off by heart (instant recall) by making visual Connections with materials e.g. handshapes, 5 strips, card games e.g ‘Make 5’ Know the number before and after to 1000 Count backwards from 100 consistently (correctly on at least 3 different occasions)

iExplore- Cubism

Learner:   Jona      Learning Coach:   Luisa Maloni        Date: 18th September, 2015

Learning Area: iExplore: Visual Art: Cubism

Learning Observed

We have been learning about the art movement Cubism. We have looked at many examples of cubism and have created our own studies using the cubist style. Jona used the elements of shape and fracture to create a study of a tree and a painting. Jona used shape and colour to define the different areas of his tree study i.e. the trunk, the leaves and the background and experimented with mixing different shades of one colour. He then looked at images on the internet to choose an artistic exemplar he was interested in trying. Jona is interested in using a rugby ball as the subject for his final work.

Evidence of learning

Jona’s Tree Studies Jona uses an artistic exemplar to explore ideas about Cubism. Jona worked on a number of studies for his final work- that’s what professional artists do!.  I can’t wait to see his final work!

Key Competencies/Vision Principles

Jona demonstrates the Vision principles of Curiosity in continually experimenting with and searching for new ideas in cubism, Capability in executing bold, detailed and expressive artworks and Connected in connecting with what other artists are doing within the art style of Cubism. He uses the Key Competencies of Thinking as he develops his own creativity as well as follow an inquiry process.

Next Learning Steps

Use new language to describe his artworks e.g. shape, fracture, hues, shades Describe what he has learned and say what his next steps are
