04/03/17: Began first Advanced Practice passage; each students level was increased one grade level from the last Controlled Practice passage; Oral Reading/Pronunciation Assessment and Comprehension Assessments completed.
Overall, students did really well on the Pronunciation Assessment and utilized "DISSECT"ing strategies either written or visually on the passage itself. Most students did do well on the Comprehension Assessment. However, several students struggled to pay attention to details or gain the overall gist of the passage. Not sure if it was the passage itself or something else causing the difficulty. Both students usually do better on the comprehension assessments. However, some passages cause that difficulty where others don't; will have to compare how they do on the next assessments.
04/21/17 - Finished Advanced Practice stage with an "on-grade-level" passage (8/2); students did exceptionally well on the Oral Reading Assessment with scores ranging from 98.8% to 99.7% (recorded on PMT); not too bad on the Comprehension Assessment (scores from 50% to 100% recorded on PMT). I thought some of the students should have done better on the comprehension part and probably would have if they had paid a little more attention to some of the details.
We will be doing a final review of some rules to remember, and then they will be taking their Posttest. Afterwards, we will discuss the Generalization Stage, make our Commitment Statement, and then prepare to implement generalization the following weeks using SOL released passages and actually practicing for the SOL assessment on TestNav 8.
