Recommended: Achieving an academic success

Laney is always prepared and ready to work when class begins. She is always eager to learn new academic concepts and works extremely hard in class. In math and social studies, she shows average skills, however, in science, Laney is above average. Laney does show ambition to learn reading concepts, even though this is a tough subject for her. Ms. Jacobs did administer a reading assessment on January 7, 2018, and discovered Laney has difficulty with decoding. As a result, Ms. Jacobs worked with her on letter-sound correspondence and sight words. After three weeks of collecting data, Ms. Jacobs used the four-point rule to determine whether Laney had made progress.

    Lee Lor was a fifteen year old Hmong girl. She was diagnosed with an acute appendicitis. During the operation to remove her appendix, doctors discovered an eight inch cancerous tumor in abdomen. Without consent they removed the tumor which cost Lee an ovary and part of fallopian tube.

The Hmong people do not accept the western world tradition and science. They hold on strongly to their ancient traditions, are animist, and very spiritual.

  • Running Record Assessment Summary

    780 Words  | 2 Pages

    Hunter was assessed using a running records assessment. This type of assessment is done with the student reading a book out loud to the instructor while the instructor follows along on a sheet to mark off any mistakes made. Hunter read confidently for the most part, only stumbling over a few words. He substituted the word “individual” for “instinctual” and, at first, said “have” instead of “live”, but this error he quickly corrected and was able to continue with the reading without a problem. The results of the running record assessment done on Hunter show that he is a very proficient reader. He only made a total of two mistakes and, of these two, one was self-corrected. Hunter’s accuracy rate is 99.5%,

  • Review Of ' Mikayla Munn '

    2358 Words  | 5 Pages

    In conclusion, Mikayla may not be where she thinks she should be in her reading, but she accepts that reading is not her strong suit. However, instead of giving up, Mikayla attempts with her best effort. She double checks her clarity with questions and is not afraid to highlight the text or take additional notes. Mikayla does not let her disabilities define her but rather plays them up as a strength. She also does not let the comment of her twelve grade English teacher define her as well. Mikayla has improved her reading skills based on her own and her parent’s assessments. She admits she is extremely lucky to have overly involved parents and sibling who have guided her in becoming a better reader. With graduation coming up, Mikayla understands the struggles of a reader but, she will do her best to help her students succeed just like others have helped her.

  • Observations from a Blind School Classroom

    795 Words  | 2 Pages

    The student didn’t have any problems stacking the cups. Next, Mrs. Banks conducted the scanning assessment. She gave the student an I Spy Book and asked the student to identify and object on the page. Mrs. Bank discussed with me to always observe how close the student holds the book to their face which was 3 inches from her face. The student was able to identify red, yellow, blue, and green during the color vision task. The I Spy book was also used for visual discrimination. Next, the student was assessed with the visual motor task. The student was given shapes to cut out and Mrs. Banks advised to make sure that all shapes are printed dark enough. Activity cards were used for the visual closure tasks. The student was asked what is different in the picture and was able to identify that the girl was missing a shoe and hair. The learning media assessments was the last part of the assessment. Mrs. Banks gave the student a sheet with different size fonts on it. The student was asked to read each line. The student couldn’t read the line with 12 font but could read 18 and 24 font lines. A book was given to the student on a lower level to measure the student’s reading rate. Mrs. Banks advised me to use a book well below the student’s reading level because I am not determining reading level; I am measuring the reading rate.
