Assignment task:
List two formal and two informal assessments for each literacy area, including Comprehension, Fluency, Oral Language, Phonemic Awareness, Phonics, and Vocabulary.
Choose one formal and one informal assessment to administer to a small group of students in your classroom. (Note: if you are not teaching now, you may administer this assessment to family, friends, or cohort members.)
Indicate which assessments you are administering
Reflect upon the assessment you applied in a small group. How effective was the assessment? What data did you gather?
Create a plan to use one evidence-based best practice to develop fluency to enhance comprehension in domain-specific (kindergarten math) texts utilizing summarizing, extended text discussions, or student questioning.
Example: Based on the data gathered, I can see that comprehension is lacking, likely due to choppy reading. I plan to practice summarizing with my students in a small group. We will begin with repeating the vocabulary words and then focus on choral and repeated reading. Once we have read the paragraph together multiple times, I will ask students to take turns summarizing the paragraph. We will examine our level of comprehension based on the accuracy of the summaries presented by each student.
