Literate environment analysis presentation outline ppt
- 2. What is literacy? › Literacy was once focused around the ability to read, but now it is considered to be a tool (Tompkins, 2010). › Literacy is a way to provide the opportunities to students to create and make meaning through exploring their world and lives (Tompkins, 2010).
- 3. Analysis: › By using assessment tools, teachers are better able to match students with books that are on their appropriate level of difficulty (Tompkins, 2010). › This section of the research practice has helped me learn how important it is for the teacher to get to know the students and the areas of each students lives. Interests Culture Background What motivates them
- 4. Cognitive and Noncognitive Assessments › During this practice, I have identified two different types of assessments and examples of each. Cognitive Assessments •Reading Inventories •Developmental Reading Assessments •Running Records Noncognitive Assessments •Interest Surveys •Interviews •Observations
- 5. Through this section of the research- based practice, I have learned how to create a literate classroom environment that offers text focused on the following areas: › Linguistic and Semiotic › Narrative and Informational › Literacy experiences › Reading levels › Student interests
- 6. Analysis: Knowing how to select text benefits my class room in many ways. › It has helped me with enhancing my students reading selection. My students are able to choose text that is appropriate for their individual levels.
- 7. Literacy Matrix – used for analyzing and selecting texts (Laureate Education, Inc., 2009). Linguistic(words) Narrative Informational Semiotic (pictures) Text that tells a story with only words. No pictures. Text that tells a story with only pictures. No words. Text that gives information with only words. No pictures. Text that tells a story with only pictures. No words. Important things to think about when selecting text: •Readability •Length •Size •structure
- 8. There are three instructional perspectives that must be addressed during literacy planning. Three Perspectives Interactive Perspective: reading and writing accurately, fluently, and with comprehension. Critical Perspective: Judging, evaluating, and thinking critically about text Response Perspective: reading, reacting, and responding to text in a variety of meaningful ways
- 9. Analysis › The main goal of the interactive perspective is to help students become more strategic readers and writers. › We must teach students to use different strategies to write and read. When teaching different strategies, it is important to teach correct strategies. › This encourages students to become more literate learners.
- 10. Helping our students become strategic readers and writers. Interactive Perspective (using the 5 Pillars) Phonemic Awareness: A child’s understanding that speech is composed of individual sounds. They learn to manipulate the sounds of oral language (Tompkins, 2010). Phonics: When a child has learned to convert letters into sounds (Tompkins, 2010). Vocabulary: Students begin to acquire a wide vocabulary and learn how to find the meaning of unknown or new words (Tompkins, 2010). Fluency: Students begin to learn how to read fluently. Comprehension: When the student has moved past the word level and carries a strong vocabulary (Reading Horizons, 2006).
- 11. Analysis: › The goal of the critical perspective is for students to examine the book, text, and choices the author made (Tompkins (2010). I have learned that through lessons and questioning, I will be able to help my students develop the strategies to become critical thinkers on their own. › The goal of the response perspective is for students to discuss, infer, and make connections within the text and their personal lives and experiences (Tompkins, 2010). The response perspective stimulates ones schema and makes personal connections.
- 12. These perspectives provide an opportunity for the students to think critically and respond to a text through personal connections and feelings that they reflect on (). Critical Perspective Response Perspective Examine Evaluate Judge Discuss Infer ConnectLook closely Forma an idea Bring together Prior knowledge & given information Make a choice Talk about
