Learning Area: Literacy

Learning Observed

Evie was playing “Alphabet Soup Cans”. I had explained how the game worked. After a while Evie came to me and said, “look I have some”. She showed me the pictures ball, box and a letter “B”. I asked her why they were in the “B” can. She said because they all started with “b”.

Evidence of learning

Evie was able to sort through many pictures to find ones that matched her can. I wonder how many letters she would be able to do this task with?

Key Competencies/Vision Principles

Evie scored 46/54 on the Letter Identification Assessment and 5 years 10 months on the Oral Language Assessment. Evie is able to work efficiently at a task without guidance (Managing Self). She is developing her Capabilities in her sound to letter knowledge. Evie is showing that she is understanding why we use letters (Using Language, Symbols and Text).

Next Learning Steps

Complete a Sound - Letter Assessment. How many sounds does Evie know? Specific teaching on creating a story using the beginning sounds of each word. Practice with other letters/ sounds in the “Alphabet Soup Can” game.
