Reflection:
What worked well? What would you do differently next time?
We did a chaining activity and students did well when we said each phoneme after creating
words. I called on students individually and this gave me a good sense of how each student was
doing with the activity.
Please list miscues and describe the support you provided.
One student had a tendency towards blending sounds when segmenting words. For example for
get he would say /ge/ /e/ /t/. I reminded him to clip his sounds and used an example that
showed the importance. Saying /tu//a//g/ instead of tag.

Three Part Drill and Vowel Intensive
Video? NO
Please list the date(s) that you implemented this strategy:
Procedure
Miscue correction
Miscues corrected using “I do, we do, you do” and including visual cues as
needed.
Miscue correction aligns with student learning profiles.
Visual Drill
(T) flashes review cards in random order.
(S) states the sound(s), or letter name plus the sound(s) if appropriate.
(T) places missed cards back in the review deck for additional practice.
Auditory/Kinesthetic
Phoneme/Grapheme Chart is used to call out sounds. (T) states the number of
ways a sound may be spelled.
(S) repeats the sound(s) with (T) prompt as needed.
(S) uses sand or other medium to write letter(s) while verbalizing (Ex /b/. b says
/b/) and underlines left to right.
Blending
Cards are placed in CVC format.
(T) taps each card as student segments the sounds.
(T) sweeps across cards as (S) blends.
(S) gives thumbs up for real words.
(T) prompts student to connect detached syllables with larger words when
appropriate.
(T) provides opportunities to blend open syllables, suffix -ed words, and magic-e
syllables as these concepts are taught.
Vowel Intensive
(T) states learned vowel sounds in isolation and then progresses to VC and CVC
syllables as appropriate.
(S) places learned vowel sticks or tents in ABC order (teacher cues as needed).
(T) states vowel sound (or syllable), using visual cues as needed.
(S) repeats the sound (or syllable) while doing the visual cue.
(S) holds up vowel stick or tent while stating the vowel name and the sound.
Timing
Three Part Drill was under 15 minutes (if not, please state the time).
Reflection:
How did your student respond?
Students did really well this week with the 3PD. During the visual drill they only said sounds and
they were pretty accurate.
What concepts were included in the Three Part Drill?
B,c,k,d,f,g,h,j,l,m,n,p,r,s,t,v,w,x,z, short a,e,i,o,u,y,qu,long a,e,i,o,u, ch, sh
What worked well? What would you do differently next time?
Continuing to have students do physical gestures for vowels sounds. Also using an open and
closed arm when long and short vowels trip students up.
Please list miscues and describe the support you provided.
One student struggled to switch between long and short vowels. I used a printout of a house w/
open door to help him see that the vowel was free vs when it was blocked.

Reflection:
What was the learning target (intended purpose) of this lesson?
Encode and decode with red words
Did your student learn what you intended?
Yes
How do you know? (Reference your observational evidence and work samples to answer)
Students had pretty good accuracy on dictation activities
Please list miscues and describe the support you provided.
Students were struggling with spelling some of the longer words. I gave them review activities
that required them to write the words several times and search for the words in order to help
them pay more attention to the accurate spellings.

Syllable Division
Video?
Please list the date(s) that you implemented this strategy:
Procedure
(T) selects appropriate words for syllable division (words should contain target
phonics/spelling concept).
If this is the first time dividing a word involving the new concept or a three-syllable word,
(T) models steps.
(S) identifies the first two vowels, underlines them, and writes a V under each.
(S) draws a bridge connecting the bottom of the two V’s.
(S) underlines and labels the consonants above the bridge with C’s and determines the
syllable division pattern.
(S) labels each syllable type.
(S) reads each syllable and blends the word.
(T) checks for knowledge of vocabulary and supports vocabulary development.
Refer to the steps in the flip chart for three+ syllable word division. These steps must be shown
at some point during your practicum.

Fluency
Video?
Please list the date(s) that you implemented this strategy: Everyday

Select an IMSE fluency strategy and explain the purpose and the student’s role.
Activity Used:
Rapid Word Chart
Repeated Reading
Echo Reading
Choral Reading

Other:
Reflection:
What was the learning target (intended purpose) of this lesson?
Read with intonation
Did your student learn what you intended?
Yes
How do you know? (Reference your observational evidence and work samples to answer)
Students were able to change their voices based on the punctuation.
Please list miscues and describe the support you provided.
Students had a tendency to overlook and/or not respond to commas. I encouraged them to take
a breath/pause. I also gave them examples of how pauses can change meaning. For example,
let’s cook mom vs let’s cook, mom.

Vocabulary
Please list the date(s) that you implemented this strategy: Tues-Fri
Word(s): disappointed, excited, patient, stern, hopeful, determined, defeated, encouraged,
confident, proud, estatic.
Assessment Used: Cloze sentence activity.
Procedure
IMSE vocabulary chart used:
Other IMSE strategy used:
(T) introduces a Tier 2 word, communicates expectations for outcome, and supports
student’s oral and written responses.
Reflection:
Please describe the activity: This was an extension of our comprehension activity. Students
identified emotions that Micheal felt throughout the story and we first discussed the terms. While
the terms had been preselected, I have students the opportunity to cocreate the list of emotions/
character traits with me. Once we had identified all of the words. We discussed each,
characterizing the words. Students shared about times when they had experienced the word.
Mothers giving a stern look was a pretty popular one. I was really encouraged by their openness
in sharing, especially when it came to feeling defeated and disappointed. They were quite
vulnerable. After we had defined all of the terms, we worked to see if we could complete
sentences that described scenarios from the text. Students were encouraged to to complete
them all over the weekend since we ran out of time in class.
What was the learning target (intended purpose) of this lesson?
I can use new words to describe how a character feels or acts in a story. I will
choose the best word to complete a sentence and explain why I picked it using
a sentence frame like:
“I chose the word ____ because Michael felt ____ when ______.”
Did your student learn what you intended?
Yes.
How do you know? (Reference your observational evidence and work samples to answer)
Students were able to correctly identify vocabulary for the different scenarios. Discussions
showed that they understood the nuances in meaning and had picked up on clues within each
sentence for example naming that the sentence talks about waiting calmly so that must mean
Micheal was patient.

Comprehension
Video? NO
Please list the date(s) that you implemented this strategy: Monday
Comprehension skill: Identify character traits/ responses
IMSE comprehension strategy / graphic organizer: n/a
Title of literature: Salt in his shoes
Procedure
(T) identifies skill and how the strategy supports its development.
(T) communicates expectations for the student’s role clearly, and supports oral and
written responses within a framework of gradual release of responsibility.
Reflection:
Please describe the activity: After reading the entire book, students retold the story based on
what happened in the beginning in the middle. Our attention was focused on what the major
events were. We defined this as something that would change the story if were not told. After
doing this we filled in an anchor chart together identifying character, event, and response.
What was the learning target (intended purpose) of this lesson?
I can describe how characters respond to major events in the story.
Did your student learn what you intended?
yes
How do you know? (Reference your observational evidence and work samples to answer)
Students were able to identify character responses.
