This week, I pulled my
phonics groups to work with them on their beginning, middle, and ending sounds.
I have two groups that consists of three students. They are grouped according
to their DRA levels so I have decided that I want to administer the spelling
inventory on them. The spelling inventory from Words Their Way will help me determine who is at the emergent,
letter name-alphabetic, within word pattern, or syllables and affixes spelling
stage. I will be able to re-group them once I get the results. So far I tested
four students, the fourth one refused to cooperate with me. My ELL student that
speaks only Spanish was taking the spelling test, but then stopped because he
didn’t know how to spell. I told him that it wasn’t for a test, it was for me
to know what he needed help with, but he just shut down on me. I need to test
two more students so I can re-group and have different activities according to
stages. I am still setting up goals for the My Profession video.
