Fountas And Pinnnell Miscue Analysis
Question 1:
The three blocks of the three-block framework are: Language and Word Study, Reading Workshop, and Writing Workshop. These blocks will be discussed in detail below.
In the language/word study block, this 30-60-minute segment can include: interactive editing, handwriting, word study, modelled/shared reading/writing, shared language and literacy, interactive read-aloud, tests in reading and writing, current events, Readers’ Theatre/Process Drama, Chorale Reading, and Poetry Share/Response (Fountas, 2001). The benefit of this block is to make better readers and writers. The students learn to use better word conventions, improve on spelling by focusing on phonics, and attain more vocabulary. (Fountas, 2001, p. 16). Fountas and Pinnell …show more content…
They can look for patterns that the reader is exhibiting. A teacher can see progress in the reader as time goes on. It is very helpful for the teacher because she can design instruction based on their individual needs. The teacher can also point out to the student how they are processing what they are reading and help them understand their difficulties (Fountas, 2001, pp. 489-490).
Because students at the intermediate level read silently to themselves, miscue analysis and retelling is important for a teacher to gain knowledge of the reader. We can only analyze what we can observe. By using miscue and retelling, Fountas and Pinnell (2001) tell us that there are five kinds of things that we can observe: fluency processing, comprehension, types and amounts of reading, level of texts the student should read, the readers interests and attitude about reading, and the reader’s response to what they have read (p. 488).
For retelling, Anderson (2005) tells us that “some children see writing as retelling everything they can think of about an event or every fact they’ve learned about the subject” (p. 65). By observing, retelling during an miscue/retelling analysis, students get to practice telling the story in their own words and learn to highlight the details that provide a logical sequence.
