Phonics Program The Effectiveness On Kindergarten Dibels

Fundations Phonics Program in Kindergarten: The effectiveness on Kindergarten DIBELS Phonemic awareness is a vital role in literacy instruction. Many schools and districts adopt a commercially published basal reading program and it becomes the cornerstone of their instruction ( (David Chard, n.d.). We also know that through investigation and research it has shown us that word-recognition instruction and instruction in oral language skills related to word recognition were inadequately represented. (David Chard, n.d.) The same researchers have found that the reading passages that students are reading didn’t relate to the words they were learning. In order for students to read at grade level or above a supplemental program should be implemented. I have found that at my school we are lacking a phonics program that will reach different students abilities and make them successful in reading. My goal for this paper is to show my district that using a supplemental phonics program aside from our basal phonics program will prove beneficial to strategic readers who fall below grade level. The purpose of this paper is to identify and understand the importance of a supplemental phonics program, such as Fundations by Wilson Language, to ensure that students are making noticeable and trackable changes in reading and understanding. Phonemic awareness is the key skill needed for students to better understand how letters and sounds correlate. Some basal reading programs do not have anShow MoreRelatedPhonics Difficulties3490 Words   |  14 PagesThis report will cover new diagnosing and assessing procedures are being used for phonics difficulties. The studies of recent diagnostic procedures for phonics difficulties are important to me, as a teacher because I can learn new ways of diagnosing my students with difficulties they may have in phonics as soon as those difficulties show themselves. Diagnostic testing for phonics is used to identify skill deficits and that need a plan of assistance. As a teacher, I can the most recent combinationRead MoreThe Curriculum At Wilson El ementary School1647 Words   |  7 Pagescurrently has around 410 students.

Assessments must be administered informal as well as formal in order to determine student needs, differentiate instruction, personalize learning and gauge the effectiveness of instruction. They can vary from a simple teacher observation to a standardized test that is given on a yearly basis (Vacca Vacca, 2008). â€Å"Assessment goes hand in hand with teaching.

Once the interventions were completed the assessment tools were re-administered to track the effectiveness of the intervention strategies. The teacher researcher chose three interventions to implement. Cooperative learning, guided reading, and reader’s theater are all ways that students can work together to better comprehend what they are reading.Read MoreAdhd And Comprehension Strategies For Students With Adhd5462 Words   |  22 Pagesit is important for all teachers to have an understanding of many research based strategies and interventions.
