Part 1: Identifying Student Challenges 

With the help of your mentor, identify three students with similar literacy challenges who would benefit from differentiation, intervention, and remediation strategies in ELA. To ensure student privacy, use the student labels provided and not student names. Record observational notes about key areas where each student is struggling with some aspect of reading, writing, listening, and speaking skills during the ELA instruction. Note that not all students will have notations in all columns.

Student Observational Notes
Grade Level: 2 Student A Student B Student C
Organization
(Struggles with locating materials, forgetfulness, sequencing multi-step tasks, and meeting deadlines)      
Attention
(Struggles with concentration and focus)      
Executive Functioning
(Struggles with working memory, flexible thinking, and self-control)      
Decoding Skills
(Struggles with decoding words, phonological awareness, or sight word recognition)      

 

Language Comprehension Skills
(Struggles with vocabulary prior knowledge, language structures, literary knowledge, or verbal reasoning)

     
Writing 
(Struggles with written expression)      
Listening and Speaking
(Struggles with receptive and expressive language, and social skills/interactions)      

 

Part 2: Selecting Research-Based Intervention and Remediation Strategies

Discuss your observational notes with your mentor. Collaborate with your mentor to develop research-based intervention and remediation strategies to strengthen the literacy skills of the students in the small group. Identify one specific intervention strategy and one specific remediation strategy you can implement in the Clinical Field Experience D assignment. 

In the chart below, describe each strategy, the activity you will do to implement the strategy, and a research-based rationale for the selection of each strategy. 

Strategy

(Name and describe the strategy.)

 

Activity

(Describe the activity in two sentences.)

 

 

Research-Based Rationale

(two- three sentence rationale that references the observation data and cites research that supports the selection of the strategy.)

Intervention Strategy:    
Remediation Strategy:    

 3-5 scholarly resources to support the chart content.

 

 

Part 3: Differentiating in the Content Area

Collaborate with your mentor to identify how you can differentiate learning in a content area (math, science, or social studies) for each of the students you observed and complete the chart below.

Content Area Standard: Select a grade level content area (math, science, or social studies) standard that would be appropriate for the three students you observed in Part 1 above.
