It provides foundational information about stages of reading acquisition, factors that impact reading success or failure, and the nature of reading difficulties. This information serves as a context for learning about the selection, administration, and interpretation of formal and informal classroom assessments for the purposes of screening, diagnosing difficulties, monitoring progress, and evaluating instruction. In addition, a final diagnostic and instructional recommendations report will be developed based on student test data provided. (3 credits) Prerequisite: RDG
For 3.3, you need to write a minimum of 2 paragraphs explaining your own role and responsibility and those of 3 others in a team: 1) SENCO (Special educational needs co-ordinator) The SEN Coordinator (SENCO), in collaboration with the head teacher and governing body, plays a key role in determining the strategic development of the SEN policy and provision in the school in order to raise the achievement of children with SEN The SENCO will co-ordinate additional support for pupils with SEN and liaise with their parents, teachers and other professionals who are involved with them. The SENCO has responsibility for requesting the involvement of an Educational Psychologist and other external services particularly for children receiving support at School Action and School Action Plus. This also includes general SEN assessments, administration and parental support. The SENCO should have the support of the head teacher and other teachers to try and develop effective ways of overcoming barriers to a child's learning and ensuring that they receive effective teaching through assessing the child’s needs and setting targets for improvement. SENCOs must also collaborate with curriculum co-ordinators at the school to make sure that the learning requirements of all children with SEN are given equal emphasis and priority.
Module 4FD028 - Introduction The aim of this module is to show an understanding of the key concepts and approaches in Early Years provision and practice. By reflecting on how these are applied in practice, evaluating the impact on children’s learning and development and the practitioner’s role. The notion of ‘quality’ and the impact of one key concept on the child’s development and providing quality provision and practice will be discussed. Namely Transition from an Early years setting into a school environment for the first time paying particular attention to the role of the adult and the impact on the child’s well-being. In the developing field of Early Years, it is becoming more and more important for practitioners to have an awareness of the many topics that impact on the provision available to young children.
It is useful in deciding whether the child is reaching expected milestones of development in different areas. The assessment framework is how children are assessed in school, for example, in my setting when a child reads, we write it in their planners. Standard measurements: School tests or cognitive aptitude tests that demonstrate a snapshot of children's academic ability or skill at retaining taught information and that might then be used to compare outcomes between children of the same age. Health programmes that might measure head circumference, weight, height, visual and auditory functioning. Educational psychologists may use reasoning tests to assess an intellectual age in contrast to a chronological age.
What is happening in the child’s environment. It also includes whether the child has any additional needs or which children/people are around the child as the child may act differently around different groups of friends and different members of staff. To assess young children in a setting you follow the EYFS (Early Years Foundation Stage) the EYFS give guidelines as to what a child should achieve at what age or stage. To find out what stage a child is achieving members of staff, especially the key person, perform observations and record these. These observations should cover all areas which are Physical development, Communication and language, Literacy, Personal, social and education, Maths, Art and design and Understanding the world.
The EYFS framework sets out the legal requirements relating to the early learning goals, the educational programmes, and the assessment arrangement (in section 2) and the legal requirements relating to welfare- safeguarding and promoting children’s welfare, suitable people, suitable premises,, environment and equipment, organization and documentation(section 3). The early learning goals describe what a child should be able to do at the end of academic year, “establish expectation” that most children are expected to reach when a child reaches his/hers five. It provides a basis for planning throughout the EYFS. The educational programmes describe the support and teaching that the child requires to help him/her to achieve those learning goals. Some children will have exceeded these goals, but it depends on their individual needs.
An analysis of the types of evaluation, assessment and records used by the Teaching assistant in their school context given the national context and exemplar practice in this area, supported by relevant academic reading. NOTES: · TA’s use a variety of types of assessment for all different purposes. · Summative assessments – SAT’s, mock papers to determine what level the child is up to and what group to put them in. · Formative assessments – Salford reading test, helps inform for planning in curriculum areas, also to develop reading and interpretation skills. · Informative assessment – providing feedback to children, via homework, test results etc.
What are the documented outcomes for children that form part of the relevant early years framework and how are they assessed and recorded? The aim of the EYFS is to ensure that all children- notwithstanding their background, gain access to quality and consistent early year’s education. To make this possible, a series of documented outcomes is given for each of the seven areas of learning and development of the EYFS. These outcomes are called the Early Learning Goals. These goals are important as they form the building blocks for children’s later education and they make available the basis for planning and learning throughout the EYFS.
At what stage in the maturation process do you believe it is most important to address a child’s learning and problem-solving strategies? Explain your answer. AED 202 Week 4 Assignment Information Processing Theory Assignment: Information Processing Theory Compose a 1,400- to 1,700-word paper analyzing the information processing theory. Identify the components of the information processing theory described in the text. Define the components and their functions.
h. To create an effective IEP, parents, teachers, other school staff--and often the student--must come together to look closely at the student's unique needs. These individuals pool knowledge, experience and commitment to design an educational program that will help the student be involved in, and progress in, the general curriculum. The IEP guides the delivery of special education supports and services for the student with a disability. Without a doubt, writing--and implementing--an effective IEP requires teamwork. 6.
