Fluency Snapshot
Fourth Grade level story Vacation. He read 86 words in a minute he got 10 words wrong. HIs fluency isn’t where it should be. He still stutters, skips over words, and has hard times pronouncing word. HIs comprehension is probably better than his fluency it’s just takes him a long time to get through the material. I could see why he would not do well on a standardize test.
E. Instructional Procedure-QAR
Objective: To help student analyze, comprehend and respond to text concepts through QAR and levels 1-4 questions.
Activity:
H
We will be reading the Book “Maniac Magee”. This Is an Intermediate chapter book. We will both have separate books. We will read three chapters together. After we read the three chapters we will dissect the reading through QAR.
Level 1 Questions:
Who did Jeffrey Magee Live with?
What part of town did Jeffery Live In?
How old was Jeffrey Magee?
What grade was Jeffery In?
Level 2:
Why did Jeffrey Magee Run …show more content…
Level 4:
Have you ever been discriminated against?
Do you know anybody who has ran away?
F. Summary
Alexjandro did the QAR well. Reading together with him was a big help. He comprehends better when he is read to but still struggles reading independently. The Level 1 and 2 questions were fairly easy for him. I had to probe a little more to get a good answer for the level 3 and 4 questions. The overall case study was shown be that literacy is more circular than linear. It’s possible for a child to comprehend but not be fluent or be fluent but not comprehend. Literacy is a set of skills that work together but need to develop individually.
SUMMARY OF BASIC NEEDS
Writing
Alexjandro needs to expand his vocabulary to better communicate his ideas.
Alexjandro needs to include logical sequence in his written works and fill in more detail to develop main ideas.
Alexjandro needs to include greater use of the three simple tenses (past, present, future).
Alexjandro needs to include subordination as well as coordination in longer sentences.
Alexjandro needs to include missing words, reduce punctuation and capitalization errors, and eliminate sentence fragments.
