Student 2: P.W. P.W. is a second-grade student who performs well academically. He has good background knowledge in a variety of areas and can apply it to his schoolwork. He participates in all classroom activities and is helpful towards his teacher and classmates. P.W. is talkative child and has a lot to contribute to group discussions. He enjoys using his free time to pick a variety of different books to read from the book boxes provided in the classroom. P.W. read a cold read story titled, Kara, taken from FastBridge in the second-grade mid-year section. The story was typed on one page in paragraph format and consisted of 234 words. Based on this reading, his accuracy percentage was 97%. His self-correction rate was 1:4 and his fluency calculation was 106 wcpm. On the recall details portion of the assessment, P.W. recalled a total of seven details which gave him an accuracy score of 7/20. On the comprehension questions portion of the assessment, P.W. answered nine questions correctly which gave him an accuracy score of 9/10. The total synthesis items recalled were six which gave P.W. an accuracy score of 6/6. Based on these three accuracies scores his recall rating is comprehensive recall. Our school does not currently utilize running records or give students a reading level. Since P.W. was able to read the cold passage at a fast rate and with 97% accuracy he is currently reading at grade level. He did not have many decoding challenges and was able to read the passage for meaning. Based on all of this information, his reading level would be considered end of the year for second grade. P.W. only made 6 errors in his 234-word passage. Half of his mistakes were changing the verb to a word that looked very similar but didn’t change the meaning. For example, he substituted will for would, could for would, and need for needed. He also substituted was for would and brought for bought, however, he was able to self-correct those mistakes when he could hear that it didn’t make sense. P.W. substituted the word | for It and inserted the word “and.” He also repeated part of a sentence twice which tells me that he was probably just reading too fast and needs to slow down, as well as pay attention to details like punctuation. The strategy needed most for P.W. is to slow down the speed at which he reads. He often reads right through the punctuation and makes simple mistakes that he should not be making. Pausing for punctuation would help P.W. slow down the speed at which he is reading and give him some extra time to comprehend the meaning of the text. If P.W. did not rush while reading, he would probably eliminate his need to self-correct as often P.W. read very fast and often did not pause for punctuation. Practice reading texts with a variety of punctuation aloud would help him become more aware of the importance of punctuation for understanding of meaning. The teacher could model appropriate pausing and expression in her read-a-louds. Another next step for P.W. would be to introduce new vocabulary words in order to prepare him for reading at a higher level. He should be encouraged to read texts which challenge him with new vocabulary and have more sophisticated plots.
