Instructional Plan Record of Student Performance Data / Implications


1. Greeting What will be your welcoming activity/greeting to help build relationships?
List materials needed for the greeting. Describe the greeting activity you will engage the students in to build relationships.
For my greeting this week, I am doing a beach ball greeting again. My students really responded well
-Beach ball with topics / categories written on it to it during the last tutoring session and asked to repeat it again this week. This is a student
engagement strategy that was introduced to us during a Teacher Toolobox meeting. Basically, you
have a blown up beach ball that has a bunch of different topics written on it. For each topic, you are
supposed to choose your favorite from that category. An example of some of the categories include:
favorite book, color, movie, season, school subject etc.

What the beach ball activity entails:


-The students will stand or sit in a circle
-The students will gently toss the beach ball to their classmates (make sure to talk about how to be
respectful of the ball and other students and how to properly toss the ball and not be forceful)
-When the student catches the ball, they will look at the topics / categories that their thumb landed on
-Because they have two thumbs they then can choose which category they want to answer
-For example, if their left thumb was on the category “books,” they would answer what their favorite

book is and so on
-This can continue on for as long as much greeting time is allotted for the day
-Make sure that every student has a chance to share their favorites and have turns tossing the ball to
their classmates

-Then I will “close” the sort and will establish the key words so I know the students sorted their words in
the correct way
-I will then check and talk once more about generalizations and then we will label the headers of their
sorts
I will assess the students learning by seeing if they are able to correctly sort all of their words

What passage will be used?

How will you assess the student’s learning?
Planning for fluency instruction (include all materials needed): Directions for completing the fluency activity (protocol- what is said and done in detail so anyone

a. Link to prior knowledge/background
Read the title of the informational article and ask them:
“Have any of you ever seen a penguin in real life before?”
“What do they look like?”
“Is there any facts about penguins that you already know?”
“Where do you think penguins live?”
“What do you want to know about penguins?”
b. Pre-introduce key vocabulary: words, definitions and strategy
Strategy: I will write the vocabulary words and definitions for these words on separate notecards. The
students will then have to read each word and each definition and match them correctly. I will
introduce the vocabulary words one at a time and ask the students if they think they know what the
word means. Then I will bring out the definition cards and have the students correctly match them.
Once the vocabulary words are corrected matched to the definitions, I will have the students draw a
picture to represent the word in their cumulative vocabulary journals that they use each week.
Then, as we read, I will have the students point out the vocabulary words in the text so they can see
how the word is used in context.
