Nt1310 Unit 4 Assignment

Writing can be a daunting task for students in any grade. Teachers have to implement new basic components for those struggling to write. Finding new methods and being able to execute them requires teachers to design lesson plans that help

A good friend of mine had recently moved into this house in May 2015, she told me in the first day that she and her boyfriend had stopped by the house to do a walk thru before moving their thing over.(The house sat empty for a year and a half before they moved in).

I staffed the situation with Nikki and was referred to Minimum Standards, which states the following:

II. Compare the bill with another of the same denomination and series. If the bill feels all right, or if you are a little suspicious but unsure, hold the bill side by side with another bill. Different denominations, obviously, look different, so get a note of the same amount. In addition, all denominations, except the $1 and $2, have been redesigned at least once since 1990, so it is best to compare the suspect bill to one in the same series, or date.

I believe the name of the new school being built should be named after a local important historical figure in our community. I believe that's the best way to name it because alumni of our previous school would appreciate us keeping the school name local, which could possibly inspire them to donate us money to help build up our school. I believe the mascot should stay relatively similar to the one of our old school because, we all still live in the same community so why not have a similar mascot.

I have chosen project three in which I had to review several books that had a character with an exceptionality as the main character. I asked the professor if I could have the high schoolers in my English language arts class do this as part of my lesson plans and she agreed. I have formatted it in such a way that each book will have some differentiation if several students reviewed the same book. Student 1 will be a 10th grade boy with a visual impairment, Student 2 will be a 11th grade girl with a visual impairment, Student 3 will be a 9th grade girl with a visual impairment and behavior disorder, lastly, Student 4 will be 10th grade girl with a visual impairment as well as a learning disability she uses voice to text on her iPad to respond

The setting is Washington Elementary School in West Orange, NJ. The grade I picked is first grade. The age group in the class is between the ages of five and seven. The subjects they learn are math, language arts, social studies, and writing. But they focus more on reading and math throughout the day. There are 8 girls and 8 boys in the classroom which makes 16 students in total. The class is divided into three racial and ethnic groups which are Latino or Hispanic, African Americans, and Asian American. There are about 1 Asian American, 6 Latino or Hispanic, and 9 African Americans.

Having a great GPA is always desirable but 1 year after college or three months after the class is over, how much does the student retain? One of the complaints you often hear from teachers of grades 1-12 is that students forget a significant amount of information over the summer break so extra time has to be allotted to get them back up to speed. Since significant loss of information probably occurs with college students too, I asked myself, “What can I do to improve retention of taught information?” Repetition, I think, is the key. I would like to incorporate opportunities to see key concepts in different ways in my courses. I would like to develop courses that parallel the major course to facilitate the retention of taught information. For example, if a student makes 80% on an exam. An analysis of the missed information would be used to develop a plan to reinforce the missed concepts in a parallel course/lab for the class. The student would be asked to

History: This student has been on our campus since Kindergarten. At an early age, he was brought to the Response to Intervention Committee for behavior concerns in the classroom and bus. Over the years his behavior has had its positive and negative effects on his academic areas with a large concern in English Language Arts. He has been a Tier 2 or Tier 3 student in reading since first grade. He is currently receiving a reading intervention, however at the fourth grade level there is an urgency to provide an intervention in writing.

            1) One of the aspects I really enjoyed for this chapter is it is all about different ways writing can be used besides writing an essay paper in High school. I remember in high school how if I had to type a paper or write a paper how I hated it because you had to go through the process of writing and analyzing a paper and it always had to be 3 pages long. Chapter 2 is all about taking your students write more, which I thought would be a horrible idea, but have them write different things besides an essay paper.

This was by far the most challenging course that I have encountered while obtaining my Master’s Degree in Educational Technology from UCMO. That is not a negative comment as this course has actually impacted me professionally more than any other course I’ve taken to date. This course has taken more time to complete the assignments, more of my attention to detail, and more of my creativity. The last point was the best part about this course. I consider myself to be fairly creative and this course definitely allowed me to do that while bringing my somewhat odd personality to a professional forum. For this I am grateful. Let’s get to the good stuff, shall we?

You are absolutely correct, the problem potentially lies with the candidate themselves. I have spoken to a few individuals who say they use “creative” words to boost up their resume, therefore I agree that without technology such as resume scanners, hiring employees would be a difficult process. Although I have not been in the market for a new job in a while, I recently decided to actively look for jobs in another state to be closer to family. Consequently I have found it difficult to get to the interview stage, after reading the course material, I’ve obtained a new outlook on resumes writing and job hunting. I know that in the past I have made the mistake of submitting a generic resume, I know that I need to make an effort to customize

The class as a whole displayed an overall understanding of identifying the main idea and informational illustrations as well as sequencing events correctly in a non-fictional text. A total number of ten students mastered all learning objectives. Seven students were able to meet almost all learning objectives but did provide the appropriate criteria. The seven students all displayed a common error by not providing illustrations for at least five events. One student was unable to master one or more of the learning objectives. The one student who was unable to meet the requirements did not sequence events in the correct order and provide the required illustrations. The student was able to determine the main idea by providing an appropriate title

I would structure writing groups so as this student is grouped with others of the same ability. Duchesne (2013) provides information on evidence that suggests this would be successful as when students compare themselves to someone of the same or lower ability, this secures their self-concept. I would also reflect on how I can continue to create a supportive classroom environment. Am I providing enough opportunities for students to use a combination of printed, spoken, visual and digital processes? Providing such opportunities contributes to their eagerness to write, as it places emphasise on writing versus the focus on neatness and accuracy of spelling (Annandale, 2005). If it is a free choice task, the student may be struggling to make a start due to not knowing what to write about. A print walk around the room to revisit charts they have made for writing prompts and word walls that support writing, will reiterate the supportive classroom environment (Annandale, 2005). I would be flexible in my planning and allow for creative thinking to occur through allowing the students to discuss their writing topic. Collaboration involves asking questions, exploring ideas and generating ideas to spark imagination and creativity (Lyons, Ford, & Slee,

Answer the following questions (in bullet form, not wordy sentences). Explain with figures wherever appropriate. A picture is worth a thousand words!
