During the assessment regarding concepts about print the three students I assessed (A,T,WG) performed at a level that I somewhat predicted but was still surprised by. The children that I assessed would need remediation understanding the formation of a book and how it is supposed to be read. As well as the difference between their right and left sides.

T needs additional practice and I think that if I would've just taken him out of the room with no distractions he would of done much better. T’s strength in this assessment definately was the fact that even though he did not know the answer to all of the questions he stayed calm and foucsued to try and get the next answer
