Other Work Samples for:
Haley has demonstrated a sound understanding of the procedure text type and an adequate level of competence in using a scaffold to write a procedure. Ingredients have been listed and descriptive language has been used. Verbs have been used to begin each command, and the two steps have been ordered chronologically. The directionality of the writing is correct. Most letters have been accurately produced but there is some inconsistency in the use of upper-case and lower-case letters. Punctuation is inconsistent but sight words and phonemic awareness have been used to spell words correctly. To develop further, Haley should practise using upper-case and lower-case letters appropriately. This work sample demonstrates characteristics of work typically produced by a student performing at the expected standard at the end of Kindergarten.
Foundation Statement strands
The following strands are covered in this activity:
- Writing
Students write with an increasing awareness of the nature, purpose and conventions of written language. They produce simple texts that demonstrate an awareness of the basic grammar and punctuation needed. Students know and use letters and sounds of the alphabet to attempt to spell known words and use most lower and upper case letters appropriately to construct sentences. Students explore the use of computer technology to construct texts.
