- 1. Balanced Literacy Development In order to gain a better understanding of literacy development and how to meet the needs of struggling readers, I assessed a student in third grade who was experiencing some reading difficulty. I developed a comprehensive literacy case study using several assessments dealing with sight words, syllabic and structural analysis and orthographic knowledge, fluency, reading comprehension and writing. These assessments gave me a deeper understanding of where this student was struggling and allowed me to design instructional strategies that would be more beneficial to her learning and enable her to meet or master third grade standards in both reading and writing fluency. These assessments are outlined here: The First 50 Sight-Words Assessment Word Analysis lesson Elementary Spelling Inventory Assessment Fluency Assessment and Miscue Analysis San Diego Quick Assessment Oral Language Assessment Attitude and Interest Inventory for Reading Reading Comprehension (Retelling and Silent Reading) Writing Assessment (Process Writing and Narrative)
