Harry's Literacy Learning Story

Learner: Harry    Learning Coach: T.Dillner           Date: 2.6.15

Learning Area: Literacy - Handwriting

Learning Observed

Recently, learners in Mrs Dillner’s Literacy group have been working on proper letter formation, beginning with the letters that start with a ‘c’ shape. Harry has shown that he is able to use the top, middle and bottom spaces on the line. His letters mostly follow the correct writing pattern, but he will need to work on using this consistently in his book. While completing this task, Harry worked quickly and efficiently.

Evidence of learning

Key Competencies/Vision Principles

Harry showed his capability of using the correct way of writing ‘c’ start letters on a lined white board. He listened to the instructions and applied them to his own learning (Managing Self). Harry started adding flicks on the ends of his ‘d’ and ‘a’ letters without any instructions from the Learning Coach. This shows he is able to connect prior knowledge of correct handwriting to what he is doing in his own learning (Thinking).

Next Learning Steps

Use tidy and correctly formed letters in all of his books. Ensure his writing doesn’t become too large or spaced out on the lines.
