Post 3 (week 4)
This was another great week for me! I did more assessments with students. They had to read a list of high frequency words to me which was not timed. I felt so great during this assessment because I could see how much each student improved compared to when they read the list at the beginning of the year. One girl in particular over doubled the amount of words she could read. My CT was so impressed with her she told the class how much this student improved and the class congratulated her. When my CT asked how she got so much better the student said it was because she practiced the words everyday with her parents at home. I love the idea of celebrating student success and you could tell that all the students were so proud of their classmate!

That is so awesome that your student doubled her words she could read. It's such a great feeling for the students to feel accomplished and smart. It really motivates them to do well.
ReplyDeleteI think it's awesome that you get to do assessments with the students. I am so interested in watching students make progress. Also, I think practicing at home is such a precursor to how students will do in the classroom so that's cool that you got to see it. Glad things are going so well!!
