Cumulative Technology

/in /by

Use the discussed technology tools to create a class activity that teaches literacy and inter-disciplinarity. If you are already employed as a teacher, you may post this on an existing district site IF you are planning to use the materials in your class. Do not post anything on your district page that you will not actually use, as this will be confusing to your students and their parents. You must choose a tool that allows you to post original content, e.g. does not pre-populate assignments or content for you. Review the rubric for full assignment criteria.

Example: Start a class blog. Create a week of writing prompts on the blog that students should respond to as daily warm-ups. Prompts should address interdisciplinary content.
or
Create a class Edmodo page and include age-appropriate reading recommendations across multiple content areas. Write a reading comprehension quiz for at least one of your book recommendations. (If you choose Edmodo, you must include the class code in your submitted assignment.)

Provide the URL AND provide screenshots that include your name and the learning activities you have created for this assignment. You must provide the URL and screenshots (pictures) of your work. To embed images in your assignment:

Infant Toddler Challenging Behaviors

/in /by
  • Follow Rubric and Directions. Add presenters notes  and pictures

    Often children birth to age 2 exhibit difficult and challenging behaviors. How you react to these behaviors in a classroom is very important.  In this assignment you will explore different ways to deal with challenging behaviors.  What works for one teacher may not work for others so researching different options is important.

    Create a 12-15 slide presentation that explores how to support infants and toddlers with challenging behaviors. Your presentation should include the following:

    • Describe ways to assess progress in the five developmental domains, play, and temperament.
    • Describe the roles, responsibilities, and processes related to integrating assessment results in the development and implementation of individualized plans.
    • Describe the importance of providing social and emotional support to young children, as well as strategies to address challenging behaviors.

    Include a title page, speaker’s notes, and reference page.

    Support your findings with 5 research-based sources.

    While APA format is not required for the body of this assignment, solid academic writing is expected, and in-text citations and references should be presented using APA documentation guidelines, which can be found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Cente

Running Record and Reflection [due Mon]

Assignment Content

  1. As an educator, you will discover that students’ reading abilities vary widely. A running record is a great tool for you to use to help you determine students’ reading levels. This assignment will give you the opportunity to exhibit your reading assessment skills.

    Complete Parts 1–3 below.

    Part 1 – Informal Observation
    Observe a first-, second-, and third-grade student engaged in reading a self-selected text. As you observe, determine the students’ reading levels and which student you will conduct a formal observation and running record with.

    Part 2 – Formal Observation and Running Record
    Select one of the students you observed to conduct a formal observation and running record using a 100- to 200-word, leveled reading passage.

    Choose an appropriate grade or reading level passage for the student you selected. You may choose from the following passages and running record scoring sheets from Raz-Plus, or you may use another passage with instructor approval.

    • Early Emergent reader or K-grade level
    • It Is a Birthday Party (passage)
    • It Is a Birthday Party (running record scoring sheet)
    • Emergent reader or 1st-grade level
    • Colors (passage)
    • Colors (running record scoring sheet)
    • Early fluent reader or 2nd-grade level
    • The Scared Bear (passage)
    • The Scared Bear (running record scoring sheet)
    • Fluent reader or 3rd-grade level
    • The Ranch Helpers (passage)
    • The Ranch Helpers (running record scoring sheet)​​​​​​​
    • Note: If you choose not to use one of the options above and prefer to use a different reading passage, be sure to get approval from your instructor. You may also use the blank Running Record Scoring Sheet provided in the last page of the Running Record Instructions and Scoring Sheet.

      Use the Running Record Instructions and Scoring Sheet as a guide while you conduct the running record.

      Part 3 – Reflection
      Prepare a 350- to 700-word paper comparing your informal observation experience with your formal observation and running record experience. Your paper should include answers to the following questions:

    • Did your observation of the student engaged in reading a self-selected text align with the running record results? Why or why not? Explain.
    • Based on the picture walk or title of the passage, what did the reader predict about the story? How accurate were the reader’s predictions?
    • What was the student’s error rate, accuracy rate, and self-correction rate? What do those results mean?
    • Based on the types of errors or self-corrections made (M, S, V), what did you learn about the reader?
    • Based on the reader’s retelling and comprehension responses, how well did the reader understand what he or she was reading?
    • What do you conclude about the reader’s reading level, word attack skills, and reading behaviors from the running record? Be specific.
    • Format your paper according to APA guidelines.
