Student Accuracy

score 0/15
Verbal comments as scribed by the student- reflections of the task.

A 6 It started quite easy but started getting harder and difficult. but I bileived and
tried my best. I saw shapes and struggled but I succeeded.
B 4 While doing this test I only got up to the second row and my brain just decides
to shut down I couldnt visualise anything I could only do some. I feel a little
successful because I think I can do better but I am happy I did at least 2 rows
C 2 Today our test was really frustrating because when I turned the page over my
mind just went blank
D 3 My thinking was all over the place. I thought about each dot and where it
shouldve belongend
E 5 Today this test was very competitive. My brain skimmed through the dots and
tried to make the correct shapes The part when the shapes began overlapping
was the most confusing and challenging. I liked it.
F 1 While doing the test my brain felt confused in didnt know what to do my brain
would look at the PaPer and the first thing in would do is try and find a Triangle.
G 1 My thinking in this test was all over the place, as it was harder to visualise the
shapes. After the first couple of minutes my brain had completely given up on
itself
H 1 During the dot activity my brain was telling me all the pink dots go so I did it. I
felt unsuccessful and was finding the task very challenging. Why would my
Brain think all the pink dots go together/ I think because they just stand out.
I 1 While I was thinking I tried to use my knowledge from previous tasks to try and
work out the pattern. The models made the first dots easy but when I moved to
the next I completely forgot About the models and drawed squares and
triangles instead, it was confusing but at the last minute I followed the model,
last minute!
J 10 My brain was working like mad, my mind almost exploded! It took me a while
to identify all the shapes, but I found at the end I found it easier
K 2 My brain was going crazy because during the test I couldnt think of which dots
connect together to make which shape.
L 6 I would struggle finding the shapes so I ended up making a lot of mistakes but I
think I did more than most people
M 1 During the organisation of dots activity I was really confused and frustrated
with all the complex shapes. I wasnt really confident while I was doing the
activity but proud of my effort.
N 10 This set of dots was quite hard. Sometimes though, I could quickly visualise the
patterns and get it right.
O 1
I never completed the challenge of the dots because it was really hard.
P 4
This test was confusing for me I found it extremely hard
Q 1 I thought was hard because I couldnt really find any of the modelling shapes.
All I could find were the triangles, and sometimes the triangles I found were
very odd looking. I couldnt us all the dots, it didnt add up. This test was hard.
R 2
In this task I was thinking about the shapes and connecting the dots together
S 0 Oh my god my mind was going crazy. I was so confused I just was so confused. I
had to just make any weird shape thats how bad it was
T 2 The dot test was ok. Half way I felt like pulling my hair. This test was a lot
harder.

U 8 I felt really confused with the dots because I thought it was going to be squares
and a triangle only but my brain got used to it.
V
Absent
W 3 When I was doing this task I found it hard. I almost went crazy thinking so hard,
that I almost wanted to run away from the sheet of paper.
X 1
The dot was a lot harder than the first one.
Y 1 During the complex and pressuring test I felt quite impressed with my visional
ability to see the dots and recall shapes that they could have possibly be made
out of.
Z 3 Today when we started I wanted to give up because I was so confused and
frustrated but I didnt. I had most trouble finding the Cones and that the shape
that looked most like a U was the easiest to find
A2 7
This task was harder that the last time
B2 3 At first I thought the test would be easy but it was not easy at all. I was
wondering why she told us not to look at our papers until I saw the test. We
could have spent a while to work
C2 1 In this task I found it harder and my brain did find the shape in about one
minute and I had to think really hard.
D2 1 In this test today, my brain went beserk. The complexity in it was really difficult.
As it went up the page it got harder and harder.My brain could not cope!
