Week 4 - Assignment 2 -Student's Strengths and Weaknesses
Overall, the student was reading quite nicely, with a 90% accuracy rate. She was self - monitoring herself too, as she self corrected 1:5 of her mistakes. However, I noticed a few interesting points during the assessment.
Firstly, in the beginning of the assessment, she had a bit of difficulty tracking which line she was reading. She lost her place, and needed the teacher to point out where she was holding.
Also, I noticed that a few times throughout the passage, she would first whisper a word, and then read it out loud. She was using this as a tool to help her read the word correctly.
During the passage, when an unfamiliar word came up, she would look at the first letter in the word, (Using visual cues) and try and figure it out from that. For example, the word blow, she attempted to read it as both and bowl.)
A few consistent mistakes throughout the passage:
-the word most, pronounced as must
- the word live, she added a d to the end, saying lived.

You really noticed all the little details about this child's reading!
ReplyDeleteChavi, you really gave a detailed analysis of the running record. I was also interested to note that the student whispered difficult words before attempting to decode them.
ReplyDeleteGreat job Chavi!! your analysis is well written and thought out!
