A finished activity page from a secure Year 1 pupil called Deio (an invented pupil; pupil marks in blue), with notes on what to look for. It is also the answer key. Task 1 matches the name labels in the gallery on the stimulus sheet: the dragon is Cerys’s, the castle is Tomos’s, the sheep is Osian’s. Task 2: tick Ask who made it and Ask the teacher; cross Say I made it. Tasks 3, 4 and 5 have many right answers: each pupil draws their own picture, writes their own name with a capital first letter, and copies a title word such as My dragon.
Deio circled Cerys, Tomos and Osian, the names under those paintings in the gallery. The right name is in a different place in each row, so he read the names rather than guessing a position. Evidences “I can say who made a picture” (DCF: identifying that work belongs to others).
Ask who made it
Ask the teacher
Say I made it
Deio ticked both kind, honest choices and crossed “Say I made it”. When asked why, he said: “It is not mine. Somebody made it.” Evidences “I can say who made a picture” (DCF: identifying that work belongs to others, and never claiming it as your own).
Name: Deio
Title: My dragon
Word bank:
Deio drew a dragon breathing fire, wrote his name with a capital D and lower-case e, i, o, and copied dragon from the word bank with every letter in order. Evidences “I can put my name on my work” (DCF: adding my name to work), “I can write my name with a capital letter” and “I can write a title for my picture” (LNF: distinguishing upper- and lower-case letters, forming letters, writing familiar words).
by me by me
My name My name
The tracing stays on the grey letters. The copies sit on the line, go from left to right, keep the capital M only at the start, and the b in by faces the right way. Evidences LNF: forming letters, writing from left to right, and distinguishing upper- and lower-case letters.
Checked by: Gwen
Deio’s partner Gwen found his name and his title and ticked both boxes, then wrote her own name, starting with a capital G. Evidences “I can put my name on my work” (DCF: adding my name to work).
| Secure | Working towards | |
|---|---|---|
| Who made it (DCF) | Circles Cerys, Tomos and Osian in Task 1 and can say “The dragon is Cerys’s picture”. | Circles the first name in each row, or a friend’s name. Ask them to put one finger on the painting in the gallery and one on the name under it, then read the name together. |
| Honest choices (DCF) | Ticks Ask who made it and Ask the teacher, crosses Say I made it, and can say why. | Ticks all 3, or thinks liking a picture makes it yours. Say: “It is fine to like it. It still belongs to the person who made it.” |
| Name on my work (DCF) | Puts their name and a title on their Task 3 picture without a reminder; the partner ticks both boxes in Task 5. | Draws the picture but forgets the name. Ask: “How will people know this is yours?” |
| Capital letter (literacy) | Writes their name with a capital first letter, then lower-case letters (Deio, not DEIO or deio). | Writes all capitals, or starts with a small letter. Show their name card, point to the first letter and say: “Big letter first, then small letters.” |
| Letter formation (literacy) | Letters in Tasks 3 and 4 are formed correctly, sit on the line, and go from left to right. | Letters float above the line, start at the bottom, or are reversed (b and d in by). Trace the letter in the air together, starting at the top. |
| Copied word (literacy) | The title word is copied correctly from the word bank, every letter in order (dragon). | Letters are missing or in the wrong order (dargon). Point to each letter in the word bank in turn and say its sound together, then copy one letter at a time. |
