Review/ Assessment
Informal/cooperative group oral assessment. One member of a table group
is given a card with an example of a vowel with bossy R written on it. All
group members were asked to chorally read the card together. By using this
assessment I was able to discern which students met lesson objectives. I
could hear the students read and reproduce the bossy r sound.
