Learning Observed

Evan is using place value materials and the white board table to record how he is solving a word problem requiring him to find the difference using two digit numbers. His WALHT is available on line in the LH1 design projected on to the screen in the learning habitat or he can access it on his personal iPad. It says that he is learning how to subtract 2 digit numbers using renaming. His problem stated that 89 people were in a race and 69 had finished so how many people still needed to complete the race.He worked with his group to highlight significant numbers and words that would  help him decide what type of maths operation and equation he needed to do. He drew a place  value house and used blocks signing/saying the renaming process and recording it on the table. This is not the first day he has worked on this. At the end of his previous lesson I asked how confident he was about doing this type of problem and he asked for further practice time with me. This is great seeing him advocate for himself after reflecting on his current ability to use renaming to solve the answer of this subtraction equation.

Evidence of learning

Key Competencies/Vision Principles

Evan is displaying an increasing level of capability thinking, while using language symbols and text . He was contributing his ideas and showing he was  making  connections with previous knowledge involving basic facts to 20, place value and face value of numbers. He shows he can reflect and identify areas where he wants further practice improve and consolidate his capabilities.

Next Learning Steps

be able to work independently with a word problem requiring him to find the difference and use renaming and record in standard vertical format. take 1 ten and rename as ten ones and subtract the number without physically changing the ten block into 10 one blocks  and rely on his knowledge of basic facts to 20. eg 15-9= 6 be able to subtract  finding the difference with 3 digit number requiring renaming of hundreds as tens.
