made ten errors and four self-corrections. I noticed that the student was a little slower of a reader compared to other students in the class. Most of the errors he made were that he failed to use meaning and structure. He used a lot of visual when reading meaning the beginning of the word and end of the word was the same as the actual word. Another thing I noticed that C.J. did a lot was skip words. When he did his self-corrections of words he visual and structure to correct himself.…

a) This reading assessment aligns with CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.5.2 ”Determine a theme of a story, drama, or poem from details in the text, including how characters in a story or drama respond to challenges or how the speaker in a poem reflects upon a topic; summarize the text.” This aligns with our learning goal of students will be able to identify the theme of a text and use evidence from multiple points within a text.

Comprehension strategies form a bridge between teacher-originated guidance and independent learning behaviors by students. One strategy that I really feel like would be great for an elementary class was the KWL strategy. The students are able to bring in their prior knowledge of the world around them to the “What I know” section (“K”). Then the students need to generate what they want to learn about before they read and then write their answers down in the “W” section. After the students read…
Case Study: Carlos 1.) Considering both environmental and individual factors, which of these appear to be associated with Carlos’ reading problems? Carlos’ reading problems most likely stem from a combination of both environmental and individual factors. The environmental factors that have affected Carlos include that fact that he is an ELL student whose family immigrated to the United States when he was ten years old. According to his parents during an interview at the school, Carlos only…
reciprocal reading and questioning. Linking talk to how it helps children’s understanding of texts. A text is defined as meaningful phrases of language that is either written or spoken (Halliday, 1985). The national curriculum shows a variety of oral activities that can be used in the classroom, which includes persuading, drama, explaining, storytelling, and discussion (Grigg, 2010). These examples set in the national curriculum all contribute to helping with comprehension. Comprehension is in…
the research presented by Grünke, Wilbert, and Stegemann (2013), the effectiveness of a story mapping procedure was measured. Researchers hypothesized that the use of the story mapping procedure would yield significant increases in student reading comprehension levels. The researchers used a single-case multiple baseline design to investigate the extent to which the implementation of the story mapping procedure caused significant treatment effects. Methods This research took place in Germany,…
Amrit Gill 301123914 Growth Plan Goal 7: That demonstrates the ability to be a thoughtful and sensitive observer of what goes on in the classroom. I want to continue being friendly with the students, but would also like to work on being more of an authoritative figure with a professional persona. Rationale: I would like to work on this because I am having some difficulty in following through with consequences for disruptive students and misbehaviour. When I do discipline a student I give…
this problem is compounded by the dual task of teaching content and language skills, often times simultaneously (Herrera & Murry, 2015). Maloch & Bomer (2013) describe the “fourth-year slump” (p. 205) for native English speakers when students begin “reading to learn” instead of simply “learning to read.” Furthermore, ELLs typically cannot…
