Kindergarten Word Segmenting Protocol

date 03/23/2020 author Laura Metcalf category Kindergarten comment Leave a comment

Word Segmenting: Syllables or Sounds Protocol

 

*WATCH VIDEO OF DEMONSTRATION

 

Materials Needed: ALL Found in Student Folder

*Duck Template (Left side of Folder)

*Yellow/Red Chips

*Word Lists (Left Side of Folder)

*Phoneme Segmenting Form (Found in Weekly Packet)

 

  1. Adult dictates a word to the student from the word list or phoneme segmenting form.
  2. Student pulls down a chip on the Duck Template for each syllable or sound in the dictated word.
  3. Adult choose a specific sound from the dictated word and has the child point to that chip.  Repeat this same process for syllables.
  4. Adult chooses another word and repeat process.
  5. Try to select about 10 words per session.

 

 

 

Additional Ideas for Syllables instead of using chips:

  • Clap It Out: The best way for children to hear how many syllables are in a word is to clap to each word part. For example, say the word “pencil” out loud. There are two parts: “pen” “cil”. When you clap to each part, you would clap two times. “Store” has one part, so you would clap one time. Say words while your students claps out each word part. Can you find words that have one, two, three and four parts? Make a list.
  • Paper-Wad Toss: Label the fronts of four paper grocery bags with the numbers 1 to 4. Then call out a word and have a student toss a paper-wad “ball” into the bag that indicates the correct number of syllables. Take turns calling out words and tossing paper wads. Keep the game going as fast as possible.
  • Syllable War: Write the words above on cards. Shuffle the cards. Have 2 children play. Each picks a card. The person who picks the word with the biggest number of syllables takes the cards. If the words have the same number, draw another card until 1 is bigger. The player with the most cards wins.

2nd-6th ROAR Protocol

date 03/23/2020 author Laura Metcalf category Second Grade, Third Grade, 4th Grade, 5th Grade, 6th Grade comment Leave a comment

ROAR: Repeated Oral Assisted Reading Protocol

*WATCH VIDEO DEMONSTRATIONS

Materials Needed:  ALL Found in Student Folder

*Student Copy of Reading Form Passage

*Assessor Copy of Reading Form Passage

*1 Minute Timer (Smart Phone, Kitchen Timer, Etc.)

*Student Tracker (Own Finger, Pen Tip, Witchy Finger)

*2 Pens of Different Color

 

  1. Adult sits next to the student at a table.
  2. The passage is placed in front of the student.
  3. Pretest: Time the student for 1 minute as they read the passage.  Adult marks mistakes on the Assessor Copy while student reads.
  4.  Adult puts a slash mark after the last word read by the student after the minute.
  5.  Adult will then begin the ROAR Process:
    1.  Adult says, “My turn.”  Read the first sentence aloud using a finger or pen to make sure the student is looking at each word as you read it.  Read at a natural pace with expression.
    2. Adult says, “Together.”  Have the student read the first sentence with you while they point under the words as they are read and you point above the words. 
    3. Repeat the “Read Together” step until the student reads the sentence without mistakes and at the pace you have set. (You can slow down a bit if they can’t keep up.)  Do NOT correct individual words.  Read the entire sentence again so that words are learned in natural sentences.
    4. Adult says, “Your Turn.” Have your child read the sentence alone.  If he reads it without mistakes, go on to the second sentence.
    5. Repeat steps a-d as often as needed for accurate and fluent reading.
    6. Combine several sentences together after each sentence has been practiced alone.
    7. Continue practicing for 10-12 minutes.
  6. Posttest: Again time child for 1 minute.  Mark mistakes on Assessor Copy. It may be helpful to use a different color for marking the posttest.
  7. The student should show progress by reading more words per minute and they should make fewer mistakes than the pretest timing! 
  8. Compliment them on their improved reading!
