Analise read aloud from a book, showing improved articulation and fluency. She was responsive when asked to pay particular attention to the end marks, such as question and exclamation marks and to her articulation of words – which flowed from her mouth more easily and expressively. Analise was demonstrably happy when she received praise for her improved fluency and delivery of the content in accordance with the conventions of Standard English grammar and usage when writing or speaking. She was asked to summarize the story and able to point out similarities and differences between the main characters - in line with the Venn diagram model we learned a week or two ago. Analise was well able to recognize and use singular and plural nouns with matching verbs in basic sentences (e.g., He hops; we hop), and to use personal, possessive, and indefinite pronouns (e.g., I, me, my; they, them, their, anyone, everything). Finally, she was able to show her competency when using verbs to convey a sense of past, present, and future. We concluded the exercise by beginning the final exercises in her Mack workbook, but as her next teacher was ready for her, we concluded the session by asking Analise to point out the conventions of Standard English regarding capitalization, punctuation, commas, and spelling when writing sentences. Analise was happy to have finished her Mack workbook, and is looking forward to going to Butterfly World tomorrow, asking if she could sit alongside a friend. She was elated to learn that she could and skipped off happily to her next activity.
