Based on the results of my assessment, the student reading
Whales and Fish read at a 95% accuracy rate. Their accuracy rate was found by
dividing the total words read minus total errors (201-9) by the total words
(201) multiplied by 100. Their error rate was 1:22 figured out by dividing the
total number of words (201) by the total errors (9). The student’s self
correction rate was 1:3, which was found by taking the sum of the number of
errors and number of self correction (9+6) and dividing that by the number of
self corrections (6). I found this student to be an overall strong reader who
was able to self-correct more times than not. The student was capable of sounding
out most difficult words before needing complete help from teacher.
After listening to the students retelling of the story, I found
that the student was able to absorb the knowledge they should have received from
the text. The student knew how fish and
hales were alike and different. They knew that they were alike because they
both have fins and flippers, and flippers are located on the sides. They knew
that whales were big and fish were small, and that they were born in different
ways. I found the student to do very well in recapping the story.
I agree that she was a strong reader overall. She effectively self-corrected most of her mistakes using visual and structural cues.
