Lesson Comments
Glen is cooperative but constantly on the move. He loves making pictures on the dry erase board, so he used that as a break between work activities.
Today, I gave Dillon a sample FSA assessment. He worked on this independently.Then we reviewed his answers looking for areas to focus instruction on. The portion I administered contained 11 questions. Dillon correctly answered 7 of the questions. This would place him at the low end of proficiency on the test. Areas to strengthen include author's purpose, careful reading of instructions, referring to text before answering questions and testing vocabulary. Dillon was focused and worked hard in this session.
