Students will be required to study the text and to develop the ability to prepare and construct a response to the text, using appropriate language in their discussion. Students should be able to identify and discuss key aspects of the set text, including how the writer constructs meaning and the ways in which social and cultural values are conveyed. Area of Study 2 Creating and presenting Students will be expected to read a range of texts relevant to the theme ‘Conflict’, including the play ‘The Crucible’, songs of Paul Kelly and the film, ’Kite Runner’. Drawing on the knowledge gained from these texts, they will create written texts. Area of Study 3 Using language to persuade The focus of this area is on the use of language in the presentation of a point of view.
During Unit 3, the class explored students with exceptional needs, such as students with learning disabilities who have an IEP. One of the most important parts of this unit was the field report, in which we had to describe and analyze teaching practices for students with an IEP. By having us adapt a content standard for the student we observed, we were able to address TPE 9, “Instructional Planning.” TPE 9 in particular deals with differentiated instruction, which is what we specifically observed and wrote
assessments, online textbook quiz, critical thinking page for understanding the skills they learned, chapter review with questions to answer, and standardized test practice. First there is a section that familiarizes the student with what they will learn in this unit. The next section shows the vocabulary context and
Vocabulary helps students apply meaning to the words they read and aid in comprehension. All components work together to provide students the necessary skills to read well. Put Reading First: The Research Building Blocks of Reading Instruction describes the NRP’s findings of scientifically-based reading research and provides a framework for using the findings in the classroom. Twelve key concepts from the NRP’s report concerning the first two components, phonemic awareness and phonics instructions, are discussed below. Phonemic awareness can be taught and learned.
Explain the functions of assessment in learning and development Initial assessment in identifying learner needs The Initial assessment (IA) process could be classed as the most important information gathering process. It not only allows the teacher to decipher if the student is enrolling on the correct course for them but also to collect details about the learners past educational experiences, upbringing conditions i.e. a care environment and any particular learning issues. The initial assessment can be both formal and informal. Formal IA may be application forms, references and other relevant documentation.
Alternative #2: Spelling Based Instruction, on pages 234 and 235, is an approach that focuses on each child individual level of knowledge. It is a good way to figure out where each child is in the process of learning to read, write, and spell; and then build upon in successfully. The text suggests an informal assessment by placing the children in the class into groups and have them write something. This observe what level they are on. Based on what level they are on, then move them into a group of children that are at the same level.
Teachers can analyse performance using tests or questioning the pupils after completing an activity. Plans could include differentiated classroom groups, built in review time. Plan to give pupils examples of a variety of skills, attitudes, standards and qualities to aim for. (b) the learners Peer and self assessment are activities that actively engage pupils with their level of understanding and the quality of their work and help them to reflect on how to improve. Pupils must be familiar with learning objectives, outcomes and success criteria and feel confident in how to interpret them.
The categories in the cognitive domain are, remember, understand, apply, analyze, evaluate, and create. Under the category of remember, learners are expected to retrieve relevant information from long-term memory. Under the category of understand, learners are expected to meaning from oral, written or graphic information. Under the category of apply, students carry out or use a procedure by using those concepts in creating teaching plans for real life situations. Under the category of analyze, learners break material into parts and determine how the parts relate to one another and the overall structure.
Title: Belonging | Concept: to belong, or not to belong | Language Modes: speaking, reading, writing, listening, viewing, ICT | Outcomes: | | | 2. A student demonstrates understanding of the relationships among texts. 5. A student analyses the effect of technology and medium on meaning 6. A student engages with the details of text in order to respond critically and personally.
This assessment is good in determining the content areas that in need for more attention for each student. This assessment covers the content areas of Math, reading, writing, and listening. Scores are a good tool to determine whether an ELLs is deficient in their English skills in each of the content areas in which he or she scores low, and give the teacher a clear understanding about which standards the student needs to have more of an intensified instruction
