Information statement

This statement provides information related to:

•the purpose of assessment

•assessment techniques

•using data to inform future directions.

Page 5: Year 1 Assessment: Literacy and Numeracy Checkpoints

February Checkpoint assessments

The February Checkpoint assessments use the Prep Indicators to gather evidence of children’s literacy and numeracy learning during everyday experiences across learning areas.

Page 6: Year 1 Assessment: Literacy and Numeracy Checkpoints

February work samples

The February work samples:

•assist teachers to interpret evidence of children’s demonstrations of the indicators

•describe the teaching and learning contexts

•provide annotations of teachers’ analysis of evidence.

June Checkpoint assessments

The June Checkpoint assessments use the Year 1 Indicators to gather evidence of children’s literacy and numeracy learning during everyday experiences across learning areas.

June Checkpoint assessments — Literacy

The diverse family• Viewing and Reading• Writing and Creating

Spelling search• Writing and Creating

June Checkpoint assessments — Numeracy Post office • Calculating and estimating• Using fractions, decimals, percentages, ratios and

rates indicators• Using spatial reasoning • Using measurement

Round the ridges • Using spatial reasoning

October Checkpoint assessments

The October Checkpoint assessments for:

•Numeracy use the same Year 1 indicators as the June Checkpoint assessments

•Literacy use additional indicators for Writing and Creating and the same indicators as the June Checkpoint assessments for Speaking and Listening, Viewing and Reading.

Teachers gather evidence of literacy and numeracy learning during everyday experiences across learning areas.

Data Analysis Assessment Record (DAAR)

Teachers:

•make a Yes/No judgment about each indicator selected

•record children’s demonstration of each indicator on the DAAR

•analyse the data to inform future teaching and learning.

Future Directions

This information provides suggestions for planning future literacy and numeracy learning.

Teachers use analysed data from the Checkpoint assessments to determine the focus for explicit teaching in literacy or numeracy.
