Lesson Plan

*FROM THE ACTIVATOR TO INDEPENDENT PRACTICE, THE LESSON NEEDS TO BE SCRIPTED*

Content, Process, Product, Affect Planning:

Standards:

Students to demonstrate proficiency in reading comprehensions independently

Students to demonstrate proficiency in purposes for reading

Students to read with sufficient accuracy and fluency to support comprehension more so on fourth grade-level text with purpose and understanding.

Students to know and apply grade level phonics and word analysis skills in decoding words when reading comprehensions

Unit: Reading comprehensions

Unit EQ: Proficiency in reading comprehensions independently, and understanding the purposes of the comprehensions

Essential Concepts:

Making connections

Making inferences

Understanding

Reading skills

Differentiated Concepts:

Read grade-level comprehension with prose

Read with accuracy, and appropriate rate

Unit Vocabulary:

Proficiency

Letter-sounds correspondences

Syllabication patterns

Word morphology

Differentiated Vocabulary:

Prose-reading

Accuracy

Fluency

Reading ability/rate

Whole Class Product:

Grade level texts, and comprehensions to be introduced, and read by all students in the lass

Differentiated Product:

Each student to be allowed a text of their choice that they can read with proficiency, and accuracy

Process:

This lesson plan will start with applying grade level phonics and word analysis skills in decoding words when reading texts and comprehensions

Diagnostic (Pre) Assessment:

For the readiness of the class, students will demonstrate their ability to read sentences constructed in the class with sufficient accuracy and proficiency. They will then proceed to read short paragraphs before reading full texts, stories, or comprehensions.

Whole Class Checklist:

Students are able to read various or multiple sentences, paragraphs, and texts without difficulties

Differentiated Checklist:

Students are able to read a given sentence, paragraph, and text in prose, with proficiency, and accuracy

Activator (Context for Learning)

All students encounter different reading materials in their academic or home life. Your interest should be drawn to trying to understand what is written in the different materials. This can only be achieved through reading the material, making reading a key process to understanding texts or comprehensions

Develop Strategy and Self-Regulation: Introduction of Strategy

Develop Background Knowledge-I will provide you with a list of sentences, text paragraphs, and full texts or comprehensions for reading

Discuss Strategy-We will read the sentences, text paragraphs, and comprehensions together before you read alone

Review-Each of you will retreat and read a sentence, text paragraph, or comprehension

Practice Memorization-You will internalize these reading sentences and paragraphs to strengthen your reading ability

Obtain Commitment-I will collaborate with all students to support self-regulation, but this will be a fading support in identifying abstract nouns.

Goal-Read with proficiency, and accuracy multiple texts provided

Summarizer-We will identify, and list together comprehensions that are suitable to your grade level before I allow you to read alone to perfect your reading skills

Model-Think Aloud:

Think of all sentences, and stories that you have seen and can read

Think of the stories as examples of comprehensions that you can practice your reading skills

We Do-Guided Practice (Generalizing):

Let us now read together some of the sentences, and comprehensions you have identified together

Let us ensure that each one of us can accurately decode the sentences, and comprehensions, while consistently monitoring comprehensions

Each one of us should read with sufficient accuracy and fluency to support the comprehension

We should also ensure we read the fourth grade-level texts with purpose and understanding

We should all also read with proficiency, accuracy, appropriate rate, and expression on successive readings.

While reading the comprehensions to understand, we should use context to confirm or self-correct word recognition and understand that rereading is necessary to boost our reading skill

I will first read out loud a sentence or paragraph before allowing you to read to know what I expect from you as we read the different texts

Example of a sentence to read;

· The teacher provides scaffolding support or prompting to help the learner read a whole sentence successfully.

You-Independent Practice:

Now it is your turn to read the sentence shown above

Ensure you do not stammer, but read with proficiency, and accuracy

Summarizer:

Each students will list and read at least one sentence or comprehension to proof sufficient accuracy of at least 80%, and proficiency in reading

Assessment:

Through common reading assessments in class, students should demonstrate their ability to read with proficiency and accuracy at a high reading rate grade level sentences, and comprehensions

Affect:

By the end of the lesson on reading comprehensions, students will have gained a lot of proficiency in reading comprehensions independently, and proficiency in purposes for reading and understanding the texts

Strategies  and  Interventions  to  Support   Students  with  Mathematics  Disabilities  

  Brittany  L.  Hott,  PhD   Laura  Isbell,  PhD   Texas  A&M  University-­‐  Commerce     Teresa  Oettinger  Montani,  EdD   Fairleigh  Dickinson  University   (December  2014) In  the  absence  of  intensive  instruction  and   intervention,  students  with  mathematics   difficulties  and  disabilities  lag  significantly   behind  their  peers  (Jitendra  et  al.,  2013;   Sayeski  &  Paulsen,  2010).  Conservative   estimates  indicate  that  25%  to  35%  of   students  struggle  with  mathematics   knowledge  and  application  skills  in  general   education  classrooms,  indicating  the   presence  of  mathematics  difficulty   (Mazzocco,  2007).  Additionally,  5%  to  8%  of   all  school-­‐age  students  have  such  significant   deficits  that  impact  their  ability  to  solve   computation  and/or  application  problems   that  they  require  special  education  services   (Geary,  2004).  This  InfoSheet  provides  an   overview  of  strategies  and  resources  to   support  students  with,  or  at-­‐risk  for,   mathematics  learning  disabilities.  

Common  Core  Mathematics  Standards  

With  the  current  emphasis  on  the  Common   Core  State  Standards  (CCSS;  National   Governors  Association  Center  for  Best   Practices  [NGA  Center],  2010,  2014),  it  is  

essential  that  students  with  math  difficulties   and  disabilities  be  prepared  to  meet  with   success  on  these  newly  articulated  grade   level  expectations  in  mathematics.  Special   education  teachers  and  general  education   teachers  need  to  have  strategies  to  help   students  who  struggle  with  mathematics  to   gain  access  to  the  general  education   curriculum  and  to  meet  with  success  in  all   areas  of  math  including  math  literacy  and   conceptual  knowledge  (Gargiulo  &  Metcalf,   2013;  Powell,  Fuchs,  &  Fuchs,  2013).  

Although  the  CCSS  do  not  provide  a   curriculum,  they  do  specify  the  topics  within   standards  that  should  be  addressed  by  grade   level.  CCSS  included  two  major  components:   Standards  for  Mathematics  Practice  and   Standards  for  Mathematics  Content.  These   standards  indicate  that  students  should  be   able  to  (1)  make  sense  of  problems  and   persevere  in  solving  them,  (2)  reason   abstractly  and  quantitatively,  (3)  construct   viable  arguments  and  critique  the  reasoning   of  others,  (4)  model  with  mathematics,  (5)   use  appropriate  tools  strategically,  (6)  attend   to  precision,  (7)  look  for  and  make  use  of  

2

structure,  and  (8)  look  for  and  express   regularity  in  repeated  practices.  During  the   elementary  years,  focus  is  placed  on   mathematics  fundamentals  with  the  goal  of   moving  from  counting  skills  to  multiplying   and  dividing  fractions.  By  middle  school,   students  are  expected  to  understand   geometry,  ratios  and  proportions,  and  pre-­‐ algebra  skills.  During  high  school,  the  focus  is   on  more  advanced  algebra,  functions,   modeling,  advanced  geometry,  statistics,  and   probability  content.  For  a  complete  listing  of   grade  level  standards  download  the  complete   set  of  grade  specific  standards   (www.corestandards.org/the-­‐ standards/mathematics).  

The  Early  Learning  in  Mathematics   program  (Davis  &  Jungjohann,  2009)  is  an   example  of  a  core  mathematics  program  that   embodies  the  current  thinking  on  effective   instruction  in  math  (Doabler  et  al.,  2012).   Both  systematic  and  explicit  instruction  and   detailed  coverage  of  significant  areas  of   content  in  mathematics  are  addressed  in  this   program.  The  successful  elements  of  explicit   and  systematic  instruction  incorporated  in   this  program  that  can  also  be  utilized  in  other   core  mathematics  instruction  include  the   following:  

1. Specific  and  clear  teacher  models   2. Examples  that  are  sequenced  in  level  

of  difficulty   3. Scaffolding   4. Consistent  feedback   5. Frequent  opportunity  for  cumulative  

review  (NCEERA,  2009)   Fuchs  and  Fuchs  (2008)  identified  seven  

principals  of  effective  practice  for  primary  

students  with  math  disabilities.  In  their   article,  the  authors  stated  that  third  grade  is  a   time  when  mathematical  disabilities  tend  to   be  identified,  and  used  the  seven   interventions  to  illustrate  the  principles.  The   seven  principles  include  (1)  instructional   explicitness,  (2)  instructional  design  to   minimize  the  learning  challenge,  (3)  provide   strong  conceptual  knowledge  for  procedures   taught,  (4)  drill  and  practice,  (5)  cumulative   review,  (6)  motivation  to  help  students   regulate  their  attention  and  behavior  and  to   work  hard,  and  (7)  on-­‐going  progress   monitoring.   Strategies  for  Teaching  Problem  Solving  Skills     Strategy  training  has  been  helpful  to  students   with  LD  when  learning  mathematical   concepts  and  procedures.  The  following  are  a   few  examples  of  strategies  that  are  useful  to   teachers  when  instructing  students  with  LD   in  problem  solving.   RIDE  (Mercer,  Mercer,  &  Pullen,  2011)   RIDE  is  a  strategy  used  to  assist  students   with  solving  word  problems.  Students  who   experience  difficulty  with  abstract  reasoning,   attention,  memory,  and/or  visual  spatial   skills  may  benefit  from  the  strategy.  Ensure   that  steps  are  taught  through  demonstration   and  plenty  of  opportunities  for  practice  are   provided  before  asking  students  to   independently  use  the  strategy.  Visually   display  the  strategy  on  a  chart  or  class   website  as  a  reminder.  

3

R-- Remember the problem correctly

I-- Identify the relevant information

D-- Determine the operations and unit for expressing the answer E-- Enter the correct numbers, calculate and check the answer

FAST  DRAW  (Mercer  &  Miller,  1992)   Like  RIDE,  FAST  DRAW  is  another  strategy   used  to  solve  word  problems.  Teach  each   step  in  the  sequence  allowing  sufficient  time   for  guided  practice  prior  to  asking  students  

to  independently  implement  the  strategy.   Create  a  visual  display  and  post  in  the   classroom  or  student  notebooks  to  assist   students.  

F— Find what you’re solving for. A— Ask yourself, “What are the parts of the problem?” S— Set up the numbers. T— Tie down the sign.

D — Discover the sign. R — Read the problem. A — Answer, or draw and check. W— Write the answer.

TINS  Strategy  (Owen,  2003)  The  TINS   strategy  allows  students  to  use  different   steps  to  analyze  and  solve  word  problems.  

T—Thought Think about what you need to do to solve this problem and circle the key words.

I— Information Circle and write the information needed to solve this problem; draw a picture; cross out unneeded information.

N— Number Sentence Write a number sentence to represent the problem. S-- Solution Sentence Write a solution sentence that explains your answer.

Strategies  to  Support  Vocabulary   Development  

Strategies  that  can  help  students  improve   their  mathematic  vocabulary  include  (a)  pre-­‐ teach  vocabulary,  (b)  mnemonic  techniques,   and  (c)  key  word  approaches.  These   strategies  are  only  a  few  strategies  available   to  help  enhance  students’  mathematics   vocabulary  comprehension.   Pre-­‐teach  Vocabulary  

• Use  representations,  both  pictorial   and  concrete,  to  emphasize  the   meaning  of  math  vocabulary  (Sliva,   2004).  

• Pretest  students’  knowledge  of   glossary  terms  in  their  math  textbook   and  teach  vocabulary  that  is  unknown   or  incorrect.  

Mnemonic  Techniques   • Teach  mnemonic  techniques  to  help  

remember  word  meanings.   • Use  mnemonic  instruction  to  help  

students  improve  their  memory  of   new  information  (The  Access  Center,   2006).  

Key  Word  Approach   • Use  the  keyword  approach  (e.g.,  

visualize  a  visor  as  the  keyword  for    

• divisor;  visualize  quotation  marks  as   the  keyword  for  quotient  (Mastropieri   &  Scruggs,  2002).  

Strategies  to  Assist  with  Teaching    

Algebraic  Concepts    

Algebra  is  introduced  in  elementary  school  as   students  learn  algebraic  reasoning  involving   patterns,  symbolism,  and  representations.   Students  experience  difficulty  with  algebra   for  various  reasons  including  difficulty   understanding  the  vocabulary  required  for   algebraic  reasoning,  difficulties  with  problem   solving,  and  difficulties  understanding   patterns  and  functions  necessary  for   algebraic  reasoning.  Possible  strategies  to   assist  with  teaching  algebraic  concepts   include,  but  are  not  limited  to,  (a)  teaching   key  vocabulary  needed  for  algebra,  (b)   providing  models  for  identifying  and   extending  patterns,  (c)  modeling  “think   aloud”  procedures  for  students  to  serve  as   examples  for  solving  equations  and  word   problems,  (d)  incorporating  technology   usage  (e.g.,  graphing  calculators)  (Bryant,   2008),  and  (e)  implementing  Star  Strategy   described  below  (Gagnon  &  Maccini,  2001).  

S— Search the word problem.

T— Translate the words into an equation in picture form A— Answer the problem R— Review the problem.

CRA  and  CSA  Instructional  Methods   Maccini  and  Gagnon  (2005)  stated  that  the   STAR  strategy  incorporates  the  concrete-­‐ Semiconcrete-­‐Abstract  (CSA)  instructional   sequence,  which  gradually  advances  to   abstract  ideas  using  the  following   progression:  (a)  concrete  stage,  (b)   semiconcrete  stage,  and  (c)  abstract  stage.  By   using  the  CSA  framework  teachers  can   incorporate  effective  teaching  components  to   teach  students  effectively  and  efficiently.   Students  progressively  move  through  each   stage  to  achieve  mastery  in  a  mathematic   concept.  

Using  multiple  representations,  beginning   with  the  concrete  level  and  moving  to  the   abstract  level,  is  an  effective  technique  in   helping  struggling  learners  solve  calculation   problems.  The  Concrete-­‐Representational-­‐ Abstract  (CRA)  teaching  sequence  has  been   found  to  help  students  with  LD  learn   procedures  and  concepts  (Flores,  Hinton,  &   Strozier,  2014).  During  the  concrete  stage   students  are  in  the  “doing”  stage,  during  the   representational  stage  students  are  in  the   “seeing”  stage,  and  during  the  abstract  phase   students  are  in  the  “applying”  stage.  Students   move  through  the  phases  fluidly.

C— Concrete: students use three-dimensional objects to represent math problems R— Representational: students use pictures to represent math problems A— Abstract: students represent the problem using numerical symbols

C— Concrete: students use three-dimensional objects to represent math problems

S— Semiconcrete: students use two-

dimensional representation to draw pictures of the math problem

A— Abstract: students represent the problem using numerical symbols

Strategies  to  Assist  with  the  Use  of  

Metacognitive  Skills   Metacognition  refers  to  individuals’   awareness  of  how  they  think  and  plan   activities.  Metacognition  also  involves   strategizing,  monitoring  success  and  effort,   and  knowing  when  to  change  directions  or  to   try  a  different  approach  to  problem  solving.   Many  students  with  learning  difficulties   benefit  from  the  use  of  metacognitive  skills  to   help  them  focus  on  what  they  are  doing  and   to  plan  for  how  to  employ  strategies  as   needed  and  change  directions  when   appropriate  (Mevarech  &  Amrany,  2008).    A   few  examples  of  how  to  incorporate   metacognitive  strategies  include:  

• Demonstrating  “think-­‐alouds”  so   students  become  aware  of  how  one   talks  oneself  through  a  learning  task.  

• Demonstrating  the  use  of  graphic   organizers,  schematics,  and  visual   imagery.  

• Explicit,  direct  instruction   accompanied  by  modeling  of  self-­‐ monitoring,  self-­‐talk,  and  self-­‐checks.  

Mathematics  Advisory  Panels  and  Their  

Reports   Developing  foundational  mathematics  skills   at  the  elementary  level  is  essential.   Maintaining  basic  skills  acquired  during  the   elementary  years  is  essential  as  students   move  toward  more  advanced  computational,   place  value,  and  fractional  concepts.  As  

6

students  move  from  elementary  to  secondary   mathematics,  it  is  important  that  students   maintain  skills  mastered  and  that  teachers   continue  to  scaffold  instruction  and  provide   supports  to  ensure  that  foundational  skills  

are  addressed  while  affording  access  to  more   advanced  mathematics  concepts.  Below  are   links  to  various  advisory  panel   recommendations  for  effectively  teaching   mathematics.
