Harry's Vocabulary Learning Story

Learner: Harry Learning Coach: T.Dillner Date: 24.11.15

Learning Area: iDevelop - Literacy

Learning Observed

In the Yoyo’s group, the learners were thinking about connecting their understanding of vocabulary. The task provided them with an adjective or noun and they had to quickly think of three things that matched that word. For example, the provided word was ‘red’ and they could have written apple, fire truck and tomato.

Harry chose to work collaboratively with a buddy, and together they came up with their ideas. He would come and show his work to the Learning Coach to get confirmation that he was doing the right thing. At times, he showed that he could be curious by thinking of words that were more diverse and creative, and other choices were more simple.
