week 3 assignment 3


QRI-5 is an informal reading inventory that helps the examiner assess when the student understands the text that he’s reading, as well as his word-identification skills, and where the student has difficulty. The basic format is that it gives word lists, with a lot of non-sight words, and then there are passages for the student to practice from, after which there are tests for comprehension. Through QRI-5 one can identify students’ word identification level, their comprehension level, and their ability to read different types of texts. As the student moves through the levels it is simple to document his growth.

There are two ways that QRI-5 identifies if the student comprehends what he read- through having the student retell the story and through asking the student questions. Although I don’t know what the assessments are called, this is my first time learning formally about reading assessments, I have seen many teachers in real life using this tool to see if their students comprehend what they read.

I think that QRI-5 is a great way to see what level your student’s reading is on, and I look forward to learning about it more.

RTI changed the emphasis for the identification process, from giving help the student only once they fell behind to providing support and intervention for struggling students early on, as soon as a a2. The old method there were some problems with: 1.      Waiting for the student to fail before giving the student additional help. 2.      Even if there is no major discrepancy between their IQ and knowledge the student still needs the same intervention instruction. 3.      Didn’t take into consideration the other possible factors that can be making the child not learn how to read. In RTI they measure learners’ performances when given intervention. They do not measure based on learning disabilities rather the student response to interventions. The student’s goals are not measured based on their IQ rather based on the level of the other students on their grade level. The RTI Process: 1.    ...

week 3 assignment 2

As teachers, we are constantly assessing our students to make sure that they are on the level they should be, the level determined by the common core standards put together by P12. After reading and familiarizing myself with the common core standards of a fourth grader, I understand what assignments are needed to properly assess my students to know if they are on the same level as their grade-mates nationwide.   In the third ELA lesson starter, the teacher wanted to develop, implement and help her students communicate new ideas to others through original writing. She told her students to create a beginning to a story and record it on a podcast. She then gave the story to other students and had them create an end to that story. By giving her students this assignment, she was able to test for two of the common core standards. She tested if they can write narratives clearly, with detail and in clear sequence, and if they can use technology with support from adults. This assi...
