5th Grade Analysis Essay

634 Words3 Pages

1. Take the STAAR Reading 5th grade released test. Did you miss any of the questions? Why do you think some 5th graders would have trouble with it? (40-60 words)

I did miss several questions, but if I’m being honest I think the main reason why I missed those questions was because I got bored. The passages are tedious and I strongly believe that they are mainly testing my ability to take a test, rather than the knowledge I possess. I think this is the main reason why 5th graders are struggling to achieve good scores on these tests.

2. Read the STAAR Reading 5th Grade analysis document. List 4 of the TEKS for which fewer than 70% of students got the question wrong. (40-60 words)

TEKS 5.6 (E) Summarize and paraphrase texts in ways that maintain meaning and logical order within a text and across texts

TEKS 5.11 (C) Analyze how the organizational pattern of a text (e.g., cause‐and‐effect, compare‐and‐contrast‐, sequential order, logical order, classification schemes) influences the relationships among the ideas (13)

3. For each of the TEKS identified in #2, suggest a product or performance assignment that would help these students master that TEKS? Justify your use of each assignment (20-40 words each)

TEKS 5.6 (E) I will separate the students into groups of four. They will work cooperatively to finish a graphic organizer. This graphic organizer will include the main idea (the how and the why), significant details of the text and a brief summary.

TEKS 5.6 (D) I will divide the students into groups. Then I will pass out a sheet of paper with different sentences that will convey different tones.

One unique thing in my writing process is the amount of time on proofreading that I spend on proofreading because it is more than the time that used in any other part of the writing process.
