Each of the goals were addressed in the student’s IEP and highlight the student’s direct

    Edtpa Planning Commentary And My Practicum Reading Conference Report

    This piece of evidence is an edTPA Planning Commentary and my Practicum Reading Conference reports. These artifacts were created based on two kindergarten learners, focusing on reading, during my practicum time (10+ hours) completed at St. Stand’s Elementary School (a Stevens Point parochial school). I used Boushey and Moser’s 2009 Reading Conference Form to document my student’s reading behaviors, progress, and needs, which I noticed during our meeting times. After conducting several oral reading processes, I noted that both student’s central focus should be automaticity and accuracy. The edTPA Planning Commentary and Reading Conference reports were written and adapted to meet the assignment requirements for my Methods and Materials for Teaching…

    Plafp In Special Education

    The first step of an IEP is writing a students’ present level of academic achievement and functional performance (PLAAFP). The academic achievement portion of the PLAAFP elaborates on academic skills that are mastered through school, whereas the functional performance statement will cover the improvement of a child’s ability to perform daily task, to include social skills. Some children will require both functional performance and academic achievement to evaluate equally; other children may need one criteria, of the two, to be more heavily evaluated depending on their disability, age and progress. The PLAAFP paints a picture, through words, of a child’s strengths and limitations so that goals can be set. These strengths and limitations are supported by informal and formal assessments.…

    Goal Of Today's Base Camp Analysis

    Modeled Strategy: The goal of today's base camp lesson strategy, modeling print knowledge and alphabet knowledge, is to help the children gain a better understanding of these two concepts. Alphabet knowledge is vital for success in reading and writing because it supports children's understanding of letter-sound relationships (p86). Children need to know the letters of the alphabet both lower and upper case. They need to recognize the letters and corresponding sounds each letter makes.…

    Focus Student Accuracy Paper

    Focus student one showed a 70% accuracy when asked to identify and sort pictures of objects into conceptual categories, a 59% accuracy when asked to identify and match all upper and lower case letter with prompting, and a 75% accuracy when asked to retell the main ideas or important facts from a read aloud. Based on these scores, I plan to raise the accuracy percentage goal for identifying and sorting colors, maintain the percentage accuracy goal for identifying upper and lower case letters, and raise the accuracy percentage goal for retelling main ideas or important facts. In terms of learning goals, the focus student has a bilateral hearing loss, therefore his learning goal will be to use self-advocating skills to ask for help or repetition of a question. The areas of growth that will be focused on for the sequence of lessons are organization of objects into categories, letter identification, and sequencing.…

    Observation Of Literacy

    I enjoyed reading your post. I liked how you mentioned that you would change the literacy center so that there was a rug, bean bags, and other things for them to sit on and read instead of using the table. One preschool classroom that I was in had it set up how you would change it along with a child sized couch. This made it more inviting for the students and most of the time, the students were always there reading.…

    The purpose of running records is for teachers to assess their students and observe reading behaviors. Running records determine whether or not a student is ready to move up a level or stay at the same level. It’s an opportunity for teachers to be able to differentiate instruction for students based on their academic needs. It entails the teacher taking notes when the student is orally reading a leveled text. Part one of the reading record is the teacher assessing the student as he or she reads.…

    The Importance Of Early Phonics In Education

    According to the Department of Education, Science, and Training (2005, p. 36) more than 74% of the children entering first grade who are at risk for reading failure will continue to have reading problems into adulthood. This means teachers have the large task of ensuring each student possesses a solid foundation built up with a range of strategies in order for them to learn how to read. One way reading skills can be taught is through the use of early, explicit and systematic phonics. Teaching phonics is the process of showing students the relationships letters and sounds have and how to use that understanding in order to read and spell words (Tompkins, Campbell, Green, and Smith, 2015). Over time the understandings about teaching children…

    Emergent Literacy Skills

    When children aged three to five begin in an education setting, some may come with emergent literacy skills while others may be lacking. Emergent literacy is the steps taken by young children to develop their reading and writing skills (Blake, 2017). Children who have been exposed from birth will come to the educational setting, with more developed literacy skills than children who have not (Speech Tails, n.d.). Constantly exposing these children through different reading and writing materials will help to further develop their skills on a daily basis. The role of the educator in the emergent literacy stage for children is to offer opportunities for children to engage in writing activities and book readings throughout the day.…
