Owl's House Analysis
I read short sentences aloud from a book (The Monster of the Woods) and have children tap or clap word of the sentences as I read them. I have children focus on the sounds of the sentences and words. For example, in the context of a book Owl, Rabbit, and Mouse have a very important meeting at Owl's house. I said that “They have a very important meeting". ‘Ready? They- have- a- very- important- meeting. We clapped six words in that

    I did this through positive praise, helping them sound out words, asking questions about the books to check their understanding and recording feedback in their reading logs. I wrote down in their logs new and challenging words for them to focus on this week. I also noticed that some children used the pictures to try and guess the words. I encouraged them to look at the words and not be afraid of the text. I covered up some text with my fingers so they could focus a sentence at a time. I finished each 1 on 1 with a positive statement, for example, Child A sounded out words more confidently this week and Child B added expression to their…

    However, I did take a class last semester, and I was required to conduct a read aloud to my classmates. This was a great way to practice how to do a read aloud correctly, so I really benefited from this because I had already practiced the correct way to do a read aloud. In this class we learned stuff like how to properly hold the book, when it is appropriate to ask questions and how to effectively switch between eye contact with the kids and reading the book without messing up. These are all small things but they have a big impact when preforming a read aloud. During my read aloud with Tina Gwyn’s class I was able to do those things well, as well as the more obvious things like: volume, pitch and pace. I was a little worried about some of these things, but overall I think I ended up doing…

    Ways to assist Ayden’s reading speed include increasing classroom modeled reading and shared reading. According to Tompkins (2014), teachers provide the greatest amount of support when they demonstrate how expert readers read. By reading at the appropriate pace and expression, Ayden could read along and observe how the prosody and expression with which his teacher reads. Shared reading would also be a useful strategy, as it allows students to interact with the reading and requires students to follow along while the teacher. Implementing strategies that foster reading accuracy would be helpful to ensure Ayden is reading at a more appropriate pace and furthering his development of reading…

    I can do this by providing one sentence with one miscue and see if the child can detect what the miscue is and give the correct word, practicing reading fluency by using word cards, and create a strategies checklist. Soloba can also self-monitor her progress and her own comprehension by using graphic organizers. Graphic organizers are useful in demonstrating relationships between texts and to what you already know. They can be scaffolded as see fit and can be used in many ways to help understand a text, vocabulary words, and writing in response to reading. Also, the teacher and/or reading specialist will use prompts while reading such as “Look at the last letter, Get yourself ready to say the first sound, Look for chunks/letters/sounds that you…

    Year 1 children are just starting with lessons so they need to be told how to sit and listen to what they are being told so they know what they need to do to complete the task in hand. In Phonics you need to sound out the sounds and words, see how the children get on spelling the word and then help them by sounding the word out again or breaking the sounds down so they can hear the letter sounds easier. When they get it right let them know they have got it correct. If some children are still having difficulty you sound out the individual letters or write them on the whiteboard so they can copy it correctly or check their own spelling. We played a game of…

    The main thing is, why don’t they just leave? The answer in the best haunted house literature is, they don’t leave because they cannot. Something keeps them inside. When someone takes on a house they form a bond between self and architecture. Houses are where people have to go when they are trying to hide. This makes it all the more terrifying when the houses turn on us. Our houses are everywhere.…

    This activity allows for students, in the future, to be able sound out words that they do not understand. When students understand that words are made up of specific letter sounds, then they will understand that they can sound out those letters and figure out what word they are reading. Other phonemic awareness practices that are utilized in the CRP are phonemic isolation and phonemic substitution. Both of these practices are vital for student accomplishment because, all together, the practices are the gateway for children to be able to succeed in the other essential reading elements. In the text “Literacy for the 21st Century. A Balanced Approach” written by Gail Tompkins, it states that phonemic awareness is crucial to the reading process. When children have a strong phonemic awareness, they are able to understand how to manipulate sounds in spoken words and apply phoneme-grapheme correspondence and phonics rules, as they read (pg. 39). If children do not have a strong phonemic awareness, then they will be presented with a struggle when it comes to reading, fluency, comprehension, and many other elements essential to reading. Page 151 in the text states “children can be explicitly taught to…

    There is no doubt that language and literacy development should be incorporated into our children’s curriculum but the use of textbooks is not the answer. According to the Georgia Kindergarten English/Language Arts Common Core Performance Standards, these children are supposed to “demonstrate understanding of the organization and basic features of print” which means they should be able to take the textbook and figure out which way to flip the pages and understand that a word is written from left to right and that each word is made up of letters, which most children at this age does. The next standard is “demonstrate understanding of spoken words, syllables, and sounds (phonemes).” If not before, during Kindergarten most children…

    When teaching literacy children should be saturated with language. This includes meaningful reading and writing and lots of talk time. A book before bed instead of television, your child's name on the refrigerator spelled out in block letters, nursery rhymes and poems recited out loud. We want to create a culture of literacy at home.…
