iExperience Narrative Assessment

Learner:  Momo              Learning Coach: Mr Hattie            Date: 15 September 2015

Learning Area: iExperience

Learning Observed

This week the learners got to have an interesting experience. They had to work collaboratively while exploring and experiencing play with a tyre. This is part of a way that we can spark some interesting discussions and writing around a real life experience while gaining new vocabulary. Momo was with her group and discussing the different ways that her and her group could move the tyre. They were very excited and the new vocabulary that came out of this was great to hear. Momo contributed to the discussion but was more interested in how squishy and bendy the tyre was.

Evidence of learning

Momo was having fun testing how squishy it was.

Key Competencies/Vision Principles

“Collaboration” was one of the vision principles that were being used during this activity. “Curious” was another vision principle that was being used as the learners had a lot of questions.

Next Learning Steps

Momo’s next learning steps are: create some writing about her experience to use her new vocabulary.

iExplore- Cubism

Learner:   Momo      Learning Coach:   Luisa Maloni            Date: 4th 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. Momo used the elements of shape and fracture as well as using different shades of one colour to create a study of a tree and a painting. Momo used line and colour creatively and dynamically in her tree study and then used confident brush strokes in paint and ink. She then looked at images on the internet to choose an artistic exemplar she was interested in trying. Momo chose an image of a heart and then created her own study using ideas from her artistic exemplar.

Evidence of learning

Momo uses an artistic exemplar to explore ideas about Cubism. She has a clear talent for Visual Art. I can’t wait to see her final work!

Key Competencies/Vision Principles

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

Next Learning Steps

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