The Influence Of Aiden On The Classroom

His attention span ha doesn't develop all the way yet because he didn’t last long at anything he was playing with. He was acting like a two year old where everything is his so he took over what the other children had without asking. With the social and emotional he was doing a lot of side by side play and not playing as interacting with the other children. He had fun playing by his self, but beside someone. He was using his physical motor skills, climbing up the climber just not making a good choice the way he was climbing. He was using fine motor to hold on to the toy and climb at the same time. He was using his hand and eye coordination to do the activities at he was playing with like the cars and poring the toys out the box. He had great motor skills moving along the classroom and picking where he wanted to go on. The language skills I really could not pick up on because he was not verbal just playing. Look like he was lacking in the language I heard another child being vocal asking the teacher what she was holding a conversation. He was helping his self to whatever he wanted didn’t need know help just playing and watching his friends. When he was parallel play, he was following the other child was doing. Typical Develop: The typical development that I noticed with Nick was the parallel play with the other children and not playing together. For 24 months the children “Enjoy being next to children of the same age and shows interest in playing with them, perhaps giving a toy to another child.” (Groark, McCarthy, &Kirk, 2014) Also with his language he did not do much talking just playing and the teacher should have talk to him more. He should have been talking to the other children but since he is at the parallel play he would be talking with just playing. I saw things I need and typical kids doing every day trying new things and things

After discussing the plan with the teacher, she agreed on working with me for the plan to be successful. The child strength is that he easily understands context and follow directions very well. Derrick can read books and understand what he have read however, he have a difficult time reading aloud during reading time. One strategy I implement to the teacher is let him pick a book he likes and ask to share it with the class. Ask him question after question about the story; also ask him to show pictures from the book. Encourage him to keep reading by following along and showing interest, limited how many times the teacher correct him. Strategies for increasing his vocabulary let the student use the computer to play words game and different

The two bigger things I plan to continue working on with Aaron are his social skills and his anxiety. Together, him and I will continue working on positive social skills and how to interact with others. He is not one that enjoys role play. He would much rather just sit and talk. I would also like to keep working on art projects or any hands on project where he can write things down. This way, we are not just discussing out loud what to work on, but we are writing it down or drawing pictures which helps us to think about the things we are working on in other ways as well. It is one thing to talk about it, but it is another to draw pictures or write it down. His poor social skills and his grades create a lot of anxiety in his life, so I plan to keep working on different coping skills with him. He has informed me in the past that his favorite coping skills is counting to ten. We have been going over breathing and counting to ten when he is anxious. As of now, he needs a lot of reminders to breathe use a coping

This paper will address the best plan for helping Joe, an 8 year old 2nd grader meet the goals designed for him by his teacher. Joe receives Title 1 reading tutoring and I will focus on strategies for helping Joe meet each of his goals. Joe has the ability to meet each of the three goals set for him, but it will take time, consistency and some adjustments from his teachers and himself.

What are your instructional goals to promote growth for this student as a reader and interpreter of text in a variety of media? My

According to Table 1.2, the following categories fell within close range to the mean: number sense, attends to print, basic reading, articulation, communication (receptive), matching, pre-writing, colors, and shapes. It is evident through this data analysis that most students are at the emerging stage of ability levels, implicating that they require some level of prompting to ensure they produce a correct response. It is concluded that students require continued instruction with addition, reading, and working independently are skills that require continued instruction. Division, multiplication, graphing, and telling time were areas that all students found to be the most challenging, thus these findings confirmed my original assumptions,

During circle time he doesn’t pay too much attention because of him not understanding what is being said completely. When I read a story to the class it is most difficult for him because he doesn’t have enough English proficiency to

Based on the scores of the informal reading passages, I was able to determine what activities would work best for Sebastian. The areas of emphasis were reading, math and writing. When initiating tutoring sections, Sebastian would read his creative writing journal in which he would write stories about pigs. Through these journals, data was collected in order to provide the best area of support for Sebastian. An area of support were suffixes

I was also given the privilege to observe a young man by the name of Chris who goes to Bright Hirozen. Chris is a 5-year-old kindergartener in the autism spectrum. One of the things I noticed about Chris is that he was that he did not talk a lot. I wouldn't say he was a shy just not very interested in other students. During play time Chris would focus on building with Lego-like blocks when other students would join in he wouldn't acknowledge or seem bothered by them. He would continue playing with his blocks. Ms.Martha, his Teacher, later told me that Chris loves to build with blocks and work on puzzles. During a read aloud, Ms.Martha would interact with her students by pointing out certain objects in the story or asking what they thought

Creating and implementing effective lessons for a literacy learner who is struggling with reading and writing takes much effort and appropriate resources. Throughout the Literacy Development course, I have gained much insight and resources that have become valuable tools in addressing students’ literacy needs. Each week, I conducted lessons and activities that targeted the needs of many students, but my initial focus on was on one particular student. His individual reading level, spelling development, and writing abilities were analyzed and the recorded data was used

has two academic goals for this IEP. Mrs. Hunter has tested K.H. on his upper and lower case letter. He recognizes them very well. Mrs. Hunter’s new goal for this next year is for K.H. to write all 26 letters. Mrs. Hunter wants K.H. to write all the letters upper case and lower case. The other goal Mrs. Hunter wants K.H. to work on is single digit addition and subtraction. K.H. will do the math problems with counters or blocks. These objects will help him add and

My child 's name is Jude Alexander and he is a male. As a baby he is cautious around new people and situations, but warms up fairly quickly to friendly people. In kindergarten Jude Alexander seemed to have made one or two friends and usually played cooperatively and was sometimes reluctant to join in new activities with unfamiliar children. He performed below average on tests of vocabulary, and the ability to retell a story. He had a real knack for the art projects, and really got interested in the pre-math activities involving working with blocks and geometric shapes. In first through fifth grade he worked cooperatively in groups, usually respects the rights and property of others, and usually demonstrates appropriate peer social interaction. He demonstrates strength in art, all areas of reading, and in spelling and appropriate for the grade level in writing. He needs additional help in the areas of speaking and listening and in the content knowledge of social studies, science and music. He was average in mathematical problem solving, understanding of data, number concepts, graphical applications, and arithmetic computation. In the seventh grade, he consistently contributes to cooperative group activities and respects the rights and possessions of others, and shows age-appropriate social interaction with peers. He demonstrates strength in art, reading, spelling and writing. He was average in math and science, and needs additional

Kurtis’ classroom teacher ratings suggest he has difficulty maintaining necessary levels of attention at school. At times Kurtis might disrupt academic performance and functioning of those around him. He is restless and impulsive, and has difficulty maintaining his self-control. Socially Kurtis generally plays alone and has difficulty with social interactions in the classroom with peers his own age. Kurtis has difficulty comprehending and completing schoolwork especially when reading is concerned. When he is having a good day he is more willing to learn and treat others respectfully. Kurtis often struggles with understanding what is asked of him. He needs directions repeated and the teacher utilizes proximity and re-directing as needed to assist him in the classroom. Kurtis’ teacher expresses his concern about his inability to answer comprehension questions and expressing himself. Kurtis’ mother indicates that Kurtis plays with his younger brother and older cousins. During play he has appropriate social skills. At times, Kurtis’ mother, indicated he may struggle with attention. Kurtis’ mother reports that he generally exhibits adequate expressive and receptive communication skills and he is able to seek out and find new information when needed. They read books together and Kurtis is able to answer general comprehension questions. Kurtis is described as being thoughtful and helpful; however, he could always improve his listening skills.

When data from students who had average accuracy and fluency scores, but lower comprehension scores were compared to data from those with similar accuracy and fluency but average comprehension, the consistent differences were found to be lower oral language and vocabulary skills in the poor comprehenders upon entry into formal schooling. (Nation, Cocksey, Taylor & Bishop) Thousands of dollars each year are spent on intervention, trying to improve the reading of children that show delays. When one reads, the clear goal is comprehension of what is read. Without communication of ideas between the author and reader, decoding texts is pointless. Most intervention programs are focused on phonics and word decoding. Oral language interventions concurrent with vocabulary and comprehension tasks at age eight have been shown to lead to significant improvements in reading comprehension. (Nation, et al., 2010). Reading comprehension is not merely a product of being able to decode words and sentences. How we teach children to process and integrate the ideas found in text can have a large impact on their ability to function in a world of ever expanding knowledge and information.
