B. Environmental Factors
The physical room arrangement is the parents do not drop their children off to their rooms just to
the front and pick them up from the front. The room has a lot of open space and just three tables,
2 out of the three tables is shared with the tables. On the wall as they have a giant smart board
computer, birthdays, word all words, and dry ease boards that has sight words. They also has
things on the way for the students who ride the bus and what bus, as well as, who gets a ride
home. The class is organized by different materials that was divided in books, puzzles, and a few
games. The have 5 computers who the students to get on Lexus Reading Core, ABC mouse, and
PBS Kids. The room also have a quiet area where up to 3 kids can wear earphones and listen to
music. It also have behavior strategies on the walls called give me 5. This is where they put up 5
fingers, they listen, and they are quiet. The available classroom resources are materials that is in
the room. The level of parent involvement is none since the parents do not come into the
classroom and the availability of access to technology are pretty high. Both teachers have a
laptop, the have a smart board which is like a touch screen computer that takes up part of the
wall, in the quiet area they have headphone and music, and they have 5 computers.

STEP Standard 2 - Writing Standards-Based Objectives and the
Learning Goal
Learning Goal
The students well be able to use contextual clues to learning learn the meaning of 8 sight words
in a sentence.
Measurable Objectives
The students will learn to use contextual clues to know the meaning and identify the 8 sight
words in a sentence by reading and define them with a 80% accuracy on 2 out of 2 attempts.

STEP Standard 3 - Assessment and Data Literacy
Pre-Assessment - Copy and paste the pre-assessment you plan to use to assess the students’
knowledge of the topic prior to implementing the unit lessons. Include the scoring criteria used to
determine whether the student Exceeds, Meets, Approaches, or Falls Far Below the learning goal
and measurable objectives.

Pre-Assessment Data: Whole Class - Once you have assessed your students’ knowledge on the topic,
collect and analyze the pre-assessment data to determine if you will need to modify the standards, learning
goal, or measurable objectives that will be addressed during instruction.

Based on the data above I would not make any changes to my assessments. There was not a lot of students
who meet the assessment but I feel like that is a good thing. That means my assessment was not too easy
for the students as well as it was not too hard for them either. There were only 3 students who fell far
below and one out of the 3 students just refused to do it.
Based on the data above the effect that this assessment could have on the planning delivery is a positive
effect. I can better understand what the students understand and what they need to know. As well as the
words I can skip or just skim through because they all know the words.
Post-Assessment – Copy and paste the post-assessment you plan to use to assess the students’ knowledge
of the topic after implementing the unit lessons. The post-assessment can be the same as the pre-
assessment, a modified version, or something comparable that measures the same concepts. Include the
scoring criteria used to determine whether the student Exceeds, Meets, Approaches, or Falls Far Below the
learning goal and measurable objectives.

STEP Standard 5 - Implementation of Instructional Unit
Implement the unit you have designed including the pre-assessment, all lesson activities,
correlating formative assessments, and summative post-assessment. Choose one of the activities
to video record, review, and reflect on your teaching. Have your cooperating teacher/mentor
review the recording and provide feedback, if possible.

STEP Standard 6 - Analysis of Student Learning

Based on my analysis of the whole class for the post test date, my interpretation of the student
learning is students did very well. I definitely seen a bit different with the students who meet the
assessment and the students who approached the assessment. As well as the two students who
didn’t want to do it did it this time with no problem since they were giving the time to know the
information. The one student who falls far below is normally in a way because he falls below a lot
of other things. I am happy with the way the test worked out. I had to read them the sentences but
still very happy.
Based on the whole class post text data the effectiveness of my instruction is that I took my time
with them and I read to them the sentences. I also explained to them what they were going to do
and talk to them about the things we did over the week. Kind of like a review before the
assessment. This was a good assessment since these students have a hard time with sight words
and reading. This help them understand the meaning of things just by reading or listening. For
example, I was reading s book durning their sneak time and in the book the girl was feeling
gloomy because of her name. The students knew what gloomy was by the text.
In this class a lot of my students have IEPs so the are all considered below a “regular” student.
There are also only 14 students in the class. I decided to pick the boys because there were more
boys them girls. Therefore I would be able to get a better result.

My interpretation of the students learning that the boys learning is pretty good and they learn very
well when you take the time with them. I got the evidence from the students learning and results
of the assessment. They helped me come up with this conclusion from the from the subgroups post
and pre assessments and the remainder of the class assessments.
As I mentioned before the effectiveness of my instruction and assessment turned great. There were a lot of
students who meet the assessment I have not got more who exceed it but still good results. The were one
student in the group of boys who have not mastered the objects but he is a little behind. He does not try to
do the work even being a lone with no one around he finds everything to be a distraction. I can could
probably take him in a room that is all by himself so there are no distractions at all.

The data of the subgroup as compared to the remainder of the class is that the girls are a little
more behind them the boys. It is actually nice in a way to see this because I know who I need to
work on a little more. The effectiveness of the assessment still work will for the girls. I am able to
see what group needs a little more work. This assessment still worked well.
Based on my analysis of the student learning the next steps for instruction is to work on the students who
fall far below and just approaches the assessment. One thing I can do is think of something that would be
less on a detracting to the students. Even though the room was quiet for the most parts there were still some
kids misbehaving, screaming, crying, etc. So I could bring them to a different room to test them. An
objective that would build upon the content taught in this unit of instruction is either teaching more sight
words or teaching them to spell it.
1. Use positive reinforcement in the I l,an to reach this goal by first being a roll
classroom and encourage the students model and showing the students positive
in self regulating behaviors. attitude. I well also make sure that I enforce
the behaviors and what is expected the first
day or school. This way they know what is
expected out of them already. I well also let
them know who is doing well in class. For
example, when a student is sitting on the
carpet nicely I well say “I like how Ashely is
sitting on the carpet so good.”

2. Transition between different activities I plan to reach this goal by using different

music or songs. An example is singing the clean up song
when it is time fir the students to start
cleaning up. Or saying “1,2,3, eyes on me

3. Time management. Using my time in a I plan to reach this goal by knowing the
better way and knowing what is important things. Putting important priorities
important and what can wait. first. As well as I can stay organized the day
before, this help with the time I spend
getting my activity together.
