I assessed Remington using the Quick Phonics Screener. He correctly identified 25/26 letter names, misidentifying c as k. He identified 26/26 letter sounds correctly. He read 7/10 consonant-vowel-consonant words accurately. He identified 9/10 common beginning and ending digraphs, missing only /sh/. His reading rate of simple sentences with CVC and CVCC words was accurate but halted and slow. He was able to read 7/10 common beginning and ending blends. He was unable to read any words with silent 'e' endings. In conclusion, Remington has solid alphabetic knowledge and will benefit from OG instruction to become a confident reader.

1. Brain Warm Ups: "Alpha Toss", "b/d Punch"
2.Chart Tapping: 2nd Chart (Modified Chart 1) Short Vowels and consonant sounds; "Point and Say" dictation
3.Word study. CVC ie: bed; arm tapping

I assessed Libby using the Quick Phonics Screener. She correctly identified all 26 letter names. She identified 21/26 letter sounds, missing /u/, /e/, /w/, /y/, /qu/. When asked to read consonant-vowel-consonant (CVC) words, she could sound out the letter sounds individually, but was unable to blend (read) the sounds. She was unable to read 9/10 common beginning and ending digraphs. She read /ck/, but missed /sh/, /th/, /ng/, /ch/, /wh/, /ch/. In conclusion, Libby lost many of the skills that she had at the end of last year. I am working with Pam Grunow (who teaches her on Tuesdays and Thursdays) to coordinate her OG instruction.
