“ The students will read the first sentence of each paragraph in the text. Each student is going to skim the text. (Appendix 4) Then they are going to discuss the main idea of the text in pairs. The teacher elicits answers.
Adonay has made his best effort to focus at his work in the classroom. His reading has slow progress throughout the year. Although, he reads most-text specific vocabulary, he still needs to decode unfamiliar words using appropriate strategies like blending and segmentation. It is also beneficial to develop his self-correction strategy by attending to meaning while he reads a text. Adonay finds challenging to interpret a text he reads as he struggles to access independently some additional meanings from a text.

(Diane M Barone/Marla H. Mallette, 2013). They need to have a regular routine and a place in the house where children can do their work. (Diane M Barone/Marla H. Mallette, 2013). A parent that reads and listen to their child read-aloud can help in early decoding, and fluency skills. The parents can use explicit instruction, paired and repeated readings and giving the child corrective feedback.
This will support students by working cooperatively with the teacher to increase their understanding of each requirement (Borich, 2011). Focus Student 1 (Above Proficient) was among this group that met or exceeded the standard in every area identified in the rubric. Additionally, student 1 will be provided enrichment activities to progress his learning. I will build upon their knowledge using strategies to increase my student’s understanding of how to prepare an informative explanatory text using topics that consider the audience. These strategies will assist them with providing credible facts and definitions, well developed points, and a concluding statement that is relative to the topic in their text.
Looking at “Learning to Read
This application of the reading process should allow the reader to “deep read” when necessary, letting the information be absorbed entirely and
Practice active listening. Engage in conversation. Quote the text (your typed notes and the novel are your “texts”).
This intrigued them, because many students are “good” readers in the way that they have extensive vocabularies, can recall content, and can read rapidly. They are able to understand texts well, but only on a surface level. This means they can understand the content, but usually fail to understand the purpose of it. Haas and Flower had found that more experienced readers attempted to connect parts of a text to understand what they couldn’t before, or even to just to form a purpose for the text.
Being a student at Frostburg State University has allowed me to participate in a number of student organizations as well as leader positions and experiences. As a current mentor in the Read to Succeed program, which is geared towards helping young local students understand and develop fundamental reading and math skills, I have learned the depth and importance associated with maintaining an active role in the community. Such an experience has also helped me to enhance my own leadership skills as the current president of the Student Health Advisory Committee (SHAC). This student organization partners with the university’s health center, Brady Health Center, in providing and promoting health to students and members of the community. As president, I not only work side by side with the diligent members of the organization in advocating healthy lifestyle choices to students, but
Literacy is the key to freedom. In the articles “The Joy of Reading and Writing: Superman and Me,” by Sherman Alexie, “Learning to Read” by Malcolm X, and “Learning to Read and Write” by Frederick Douglass, the message of learning to read and write providing fate-changing opportunities for oneself as well as for others is present consistently. “The Joy of Reading and Writing: Superman and Me,” by Sherman Alexie reveals that being able to read and write has a tremendous effect on one’s future. As evident in the following quote, “As Indian children, we were expected to fail in the non-Indian world,” Indians were “stupid” according to the stereotypes, and, unfortunately, Indian children “lived up to those expectations.” This stereotype had already
Reading Strategy File One #1: Before Reading Strategy Name of Strategy: Anticipation Guide Description of Strategy: Anticipation guides prepare students for a story or a text. Anticipation guides help to motivate students to read a story, build curiosity and help students predict what will happen in a text or a story before beginning to read it. Anticipation guides also help students to self-monitor their own interactions with a text or story.
Justification: (approximately 100-150 words) Based on Nicole’s SDQA scoring sheet, her instructional level was not determined because she did not score two errors on any level. She scored at 5th grade independent level and 6th grade frustration level. Her score sheet reveals that her reading skills strengths include phonemic awareness and letter-sound knowledge and decoding because she recognized letter patterns in some of the words she misread. This leads me to believe that Nicole has strong phonic analysis skills and a high sight word vocabulary which allows her the confidence to attempt reading multisyllabic words. Nicole’s reading level should begin at the 4th grade level because the last grade-level word list scored as independent was 5th grade.
Before the RMA Nathan struggled with reading and felt bad when he was called upon to read in class.

We took our time as we read aloud and followed along with our finger. After partaking in this reading program I was skilled in reading and was finally sent back to class. I put my reading skills into action any time the teacher needed a volunteer to read from the textbook. Confidence was pouring out of me as I skimmed through the passages. My literary confidence was soon put to the test when writing was put into play.
