  4. How to decode two and three letter words with letters we’ve worked on Why letter sounds are important to progress reading How to identify the letters p and s in words by both sight and sound How to sort pictures/words based on their beginning sounds How to spell two and three letter words based on the sounds they hear How the sounds (word families) at the ends of words creates rhymes How to identify a noun in a sentence How too use new vocabulary in context Phonics/Phonemic Awareness Grammar Oral Vocabulary Whether it is naming a person, place, or thing How to share ideas with details/connections Unit:Friends How lists/webs help us to organize our thoughts What characteristics characters showed Writing Comprehension High Frequency Words Using evidence to support responses How to use sight words to build sentences Why the authors wrote about friends/wanted us to learn Why labels help others to learn about our work How to use sight words in writing and speech How to recognize sight words within a text or conversation The role illustrations played in explaining parts of the stories Neatly write letters and words The goals for what students will be able to show by the end of the three week unit are around the outside (some of these goals will continue throughout other units as well) 2

  6. Create your Best friend project Critical Question: What would you want your friend to be like? Why? What Does the Project Include? A drawing of the student’s friend. At least three words to describe his/her friend (I will assist in spelling) A presentation of his/her friend that answers the questions below. Presentation Questions: Why did you make your friend the way you did? Is your friend like any of the characters in the story? How (evidence)? Like you? How so? Think of the vocabulary words we’ve used. Is your friend any of those? Main Idea: A friend is someone who is kind, fun to be around, and makes us better. How to use the Main Idea: How can you use your new “best friend” to be a better friend? Real Life Applications Students will use what they learned during this unit to be a better friend and to surround themselves with friends who are positive and supportive. 4

  7. Manual teaching versus my teaching Reading straight from the manual word for word Taking the words and creating a Prezi to engage learners and get them “hooked” Asking only the questions from the manual Developing related questions that encourage connection building, but that link with evidence from readings Workbook activities only Creating meaningful learning activities that will connect literature to experience. Only reading the prescribed texts Bringing in texts that are rich in multicultural aspects that will help deepen understanding Very little “hands on” “minds on” Getting students out of the their seats, dancing, singing, and doing projects that will broaden their thinking 5

  8. My experience with coverage versus uncoverage As a Teacher… As a Student… Worksheets VS Projects… I do as many hands-on activities as I can along with the required activity book pages for our series… Defining Vocabulary VS Connecting with Vocabulary… We are vocabulary detectives and have to use evidence and connections to discover meanings Reading because we had to VS Reading for pleasure In addition to the required texts with our series, students read for pleasure in “Reash’s Reading Retreat” Tests for getting the right answer VS Showing how you got to the right answer The assessments we give can have more than one answer and when I question students, they have to give evidence now to support their responses (common core) 6
