Identification of Learning Problem My target audience will be 19 first grade students at Fayetteville Elementary school in Fayetteville, GA. The students range in age from six to eight years old. 68%, or 13 of the children are African American, 21%, or 4 are Caucasian, and 5%, or 1 is Asian. Fayetteville Elementary is a Title I school with approximately 53% of the student body qualifying for free or reduced meal rates. All the students in the classroom attended kindergarten at Fayetteville Elementary School. Three times a year my district requires teachers to complete Dibels Next testing in reading for each student. First graders are tested on nonsense words (correct letter sounds and whole words read) as well as oral reading fluency. The expectation is that each student will read sixty-nine words of grade level text in a one minute. This test aided me in determining the problem area for the above first grade class. The class had 89% of students not meeting the goal of 69 words per minute for oral reading fluency. This is 17 out of 19 students in the class that are not reading at a rate of 69 words in one minute. In previous years, between 40-50% were not meeting the oral reading standards at this point in the school year. This deficiency is based on county level expectations as well as the Common Core Standards. The Common Core Standard for fluency is as follows: ELAGSE1RF4: Read with sufficient accuracy and fluency to support comprehension. a. Read on-level text with purpose and understanding. b. Read on-level text orally with accuracy, appropriate rate, and expression on successive readings. c. Use context to confirm or self-correct word recognition and understanding, rereading as necessary. d. Read

grade-appropriate irregularly spelled words. My instructional goals ●

Students will define fluency and know why it is important.

●

Students will identify 200 Fry sight words within 3 seconds and read sight word phrases within 5 seconds.

●

Students will use phonics skills to decode unfamiliar words.

●

Students will read grade level text at a rate of at least 69 words per minute with 90% accuracy or better.

Learner Analysis My target audience is 19 first grade students at Fayetteville Elementary school in Fayetteville, GA. The students range in age from six to eight years old. 68%, or 13 of the children are African American, 21%, or 4 are Caucasian, and 5%, or 1 is Asian. There are 4 students who are identified as gifted and are pulled out each Friday for services. There are 3 students who qualified for the Early Intervention Program in reading only. There are 13 students living in two parent homes and 2 students live in a home with multiple generations. I have 2 students that are tier 3 for behavior and 3 students who are tier 2 in the Response to Intervention pyramid. There are no students identified with learning disabilities. The students in the target audience all attended Fayetteville Elementary as a kindergarten students, and based on teacher grades, all were promoted to first grade. The teachers used Georgia Standards of Excellence (GSE) for ELA and math, and Georgia Performance Standards (GPS) for social studies and science. Students received grades on a scale from 1-4. A 1 is working below grade level with accommodations, a 2 is working at grade level with

accommodations, a 3 is working at grade level, and a 4 is working above grade level. Grades were based on benchmark results as well as EIP placement data. Kindergarten teachers give the Georgia Kindergarten Inventory of Developing Skills (GKIDS) as well as Dibles Next. The scores are entered into Infinite Campus where all future teachers have access to the scores. There are no standardized test scores, but based on the tests given at the end of kindergarten, only 16 percent of the students in the target audience are not working on or above grade-level. The standards that all students must master before entering first grade for fluency are listed below: ● Recognize 50 sight words (3 second maximum for each word-Fayette County standard) ● Demonstrate basic knowledge of one-to-one letter-sound correspondences by producing the primary or many of most frequent sounds for each consonant. ● Associate the long and short sounds with the common spellings (graphemes)for the five major vowels. ● Distinguish between similarly spelled words by identifying the sounds of the letters that differ. ● Read common high-frequency words by sight. (e.g., the, of, to, you, she, my, is, are, do, does); read emergent-reader texts with purpose and understanding. I conducted a survey (happy face, straight face, sad face) to collect data on academic areas (reading, math, writing) and overall motivation. I found that 63% of the class enjoyed reading aloud in class (happy face), 16% were neutral (straight face), and 21% did not enjoy reading aloud (sad face). However, 84% of the class thought of themselves as “good” readers. The survey also found that students enjoyed when a story was read aloud to them, and only 50%

of them had stories read to them at home. When students take weekly spelling and sight word checks (both relating to fluency), scores reflect if the student has practice at home through homework. The survey also found that overall students enjoy school. There was one student that did not like school, however, 95% circled the happy face when asked how they felt about coming to school in general. The one student with a negative feeling is on a behavior plan and has check in/outs as part of the RTI process. Students indicated that they enjoyed working with a tablet or computer, as well as with a teacher in a small group. Task Analysis I conducted a task analysis using a topical and procedural analysis. Information from the county benchmark Dibels showed students have a deficit in the area of reading fluency. Task Analysis Outline 1. What is reading fluency? 1.1 Define fluency and why it is important. 1.2 Read grade level text with appropriate speed, accuracy, and prosody. 2. Types of words 2.1 Sight words 2.1.1 Sight words are the from the Fry list (0-200 for first grade) that you should recognize by sight 2.2 Nonsense words 2.2.1 Nonsense words are consonant-vowel-consonant (CVC) words that should be blended and read as if it is a real word. 2.3. Phonics rule words

2.3.1 Phonics rule words are words that have a rule, such as vowel-consonant-e (sneaky e rule) that students are able to sound out. 3. Repeated Readings 3.1 Sight word phrases 3.1.1 Sight word phrases ​build vocabulary and schema as well as help fluency 3.2 Sight word stories 3.2.1 Sight word stories have comprehension opportunities as well as promoting fluency. 3.3 Grade-level passages 3.3.1 Grade-level passages are stories that are appropriate in difficulty (length, vocabulary, comprehension). 3.4 Timed repeated readings 3.4.1 Timed repeated readings are done 3-5 times and words per minute are recorded and graphed if possible. I, Marie Roberson, will serve as the SME for this instructional plan. I have a Bachelor’s of Science degree in Social Sciences, with a minor in History. I completed a Teacher Alternative Preparation Program (TAPP) through Clayton County Public Schools (CCPS). I taught 2​nd​ grade in CCPS for three years, 2​nd​ grade at Fayetteville Elementary for one year, as well as 1​st​ grade for seven years. My primary qualification to serve as the SME is the fact that I know the standards thoroughly, as well as the target audience. I have taught fluency in both 2nd grade as well as first grade, attended two Reading First conferences as well as several county level literacy trainings on reading fluency.

Lesson 1​: ​What is Fluency? Goal: Student will define fluency. Objective:​ ​Define reading fluency and have a clear understanding of why it is important by viewing a PowerPoint with narration. Differentiation: Through google classroom students will log on and take a quiz on google docs. Students will have the ability to have the words read to them, through adaptive technology. A free response will be added after each question for high achieving students to add reasons to support their answer. Rubric ● Excels in understanding: Student completes assignments with 0 errors (100%) ● Demonstrates a clear understanding: Student completes assessment with 1 error (80%) ● Demonstrates some understanding: Students completes assessment with 2 errors (60%) ● Little to no understanding: Student complete assessment with 3-5 errors (0-40%) Assessment (google form) 1. A fluent reader _____________ a. reads really quickly b. reads with NO expression c. reads with expression and pays attention to punctuation. 2. _______________ will help my fluency increase. a. Playing games b. Sight words and sight word phrase practice c. Chapter books

3. Do you want to read as fast as you can and make many mistakes? a. Yes b. No 4. If I am a fluent reader, then I should be able to _______________. a. read really slow like a robot b. understand the story c. know my math facts 5. Fluency is about reading the way that I ___________________. a. play b. read c. talk Below is a picture from the google form students will take. This test was created using ideas from the pre-test at reading rockets (Fluency). The PowerPoint that will be housed in Google Classroom is also shown below in a screen shot. The entire PowerPoint has teacher recorded narration.

Lesson 2: Sight Words Goal: Students will apply sight word knowledge to increase fluency. Objective: 2. Given the 200 Fry word list, students will identify each word within 3 seconds and will also demonstrate sight word knowledge by reading sight word phrase cards within 5 seconds. Differentiation: Students will start at different levels based on a pretest give at the beginning of the year by the teacher. Some students may be able to skip the assessment altogether if they know 200 words, or others may start at 100 instead of starting at 1-24 section. Sight Word Rubric 1

Assessment Students will take sight word assessment through Raz-Kids Plus subscription. The first picture on the left is a screenshot of the sight word assessment(s) students will take after completing the assigned work. The lessons will focus on identification of sight words, through a PowerPoint. The PowerPoint, second picture, has narration however the narration starts after three seconds to give the student time to identify the word first. Students are also exposed to sight word phrases at the end of the PowerPoint. There is also a delay in the narration to give students a chance to identify the phrase. The differentiation for this lesson is that each student begins where the teacher places them. Some students may need to start at sight word 1, while others can go straight to sight word 50. The PowerPoints and the assessments are divided go help place students accordingly.

Lesson 3: Nonsense Words and Phonics Goal: Students will identify nonsense words and phonemic unfamiliar words within 5 seconds. Objective: Students will transfer the phonics and other strategies learned to decode unfamiliar words in their reading. a. Use word recognition strategies (phonetic and nonsense word strategies) to identify unfamiliar words. Assessment: 1-Students will take a nonsense word/real word sort on google docs. 2-Students will take county phonics assessment. They will use the record feature in ppt and record their voices based on the words that presented on the screen. Differentiation: Students will have the option to have narration for assessment 1, but not for assessment 2. Assessment 1 Rubric ● Exceeds in understanding: Student completes assignments with 0 errors (100%). ● Demonstrates a clear understanding: Student completes assessment with 1-2 errors (80-90%). ● Demonstrates some understanding: Student completes assessment with 3-4 errors

(60-70%). ● Little to no understanding: Student complete assessment with 5-10 errors (0-50%). Assessment 1 Students will complete google document shown below. They will complete this step after viewing narrated PowerPoint on nonsense words. This will determine if they are ready to move to the next section of the lesson phonics skills. The document will be in Google Classroom and students will make a copy and it will be save to their google drive which will them be shared with the teacher.

Assessment 2 Rubric ● Outstanding: Student identifies 45-50 words correctly. ● Clear Understanding: Student identifies 35-45 words correctly. ● Some understanding: Student identifies 26-34 words correctly. ● Little to no understanding: Student identifies 0-25 words correctly. Assessment 2 Students will complete a PowerPoint called the phonics inventory created by the county based on the phonics skills taught in each first grade classroom. The students will save a copy to their google drive and like the previous assessments, record their voice on each slide for teacher

to review.

Lesson 4: Putting It All Together Goal: Student will be read a first grade reading passage with appropriate fluency. Objective: 4. Students will read at a rate of at least 69 words per minute with 90% accuracy or better. Differentiation: Students are taught to record in technology, however there can be a visual slide (and narration) housed in google classroom to walk students through the recording process. To Students will record passage for teacher to listen to and score from ppt that is shared as a google slide. For students that need a challenge, there will be a separate lesson based on the passage that asks students to create a picture summary through ppt (again taught through technology class). Rubric

Fluency (wpm) Assessment Below is a Dibels (Good, Kaminski, & Dill) reading passage that each student will get on a Powerpoint slide. After going through the repeated reading instruction the students will read this passage once, record it, and share it with their teacher. The Ant Hill Dad and I took a hike in the woods. We walked for a long time and stopped to take a rest. We sat down on a log and had a drink of water. A big hill was nearby. Dad said, “Look, there’s an ant hill.” I walked up to the hill and took a closer peek. At first it looked just like a dirt hill. Then I noticed a few ants running around. I looked closer. I saw little ants carrying pieces of mushroom.

The pieces were almost as big as the ants. “What are they doing, Dad?” I asked. “They’re taking food inside the hill. They probably have thousands of ants to feed inside.” Dad said, “Watch this.” He gently poked a twig into a small hole on the hill. All of a sudden, many ants came out. “The ants are on alert, trying to protect their hill,” he said. I bent down to look closer. Some ants climbed on my shoes. “We should leave now,” Dad said. Dad and I walked and walked until we were home. Now whenever I see one ant, I stop and think about the city of ants they might be feeding and protecting.

above lessons to read a passage to see if their fluency has increased.

The sequence of the lessons begins with allowing students to focus the meaning of

fluency and the importance of fluency in regards to comprehension. Next the students will be introduced to the Fry sight words lessons because between 60-75% of the text they read in grades K-2 are sight words. If students can master the sight words, they will be more confident in their reading and then move to the next lesson of phonics strategies. Once the phonics strategies for first grade are introduced, they will then read a grade level text and record themselves to see if their fluency has improved. Lesson 1 -What is Fluency? Objective 1-Define reading fluency and have a clear understanding of why it is important. Initial Instruction-The lesson will begin with students viewing a teacher created PowerPoint presentation. The presentation reminds students of the definition of fluency and the overall goal, which is to have fluency for comprehension. After the students have viewed the PowerPoint they will watch a YouTube video of a student reading. Each time the student reads there is a small commentary on if the student is reading fluently. Generative Strategy-Example/nonexample- Students will then listen to a PowerPoint presentation/game and click the appropriate thumbs up or thumbs down to if the person reading is a fluent reader, or not a fluent reader (​Morrison, Ross, Kalman, & Kemp p. ​145). Differentiation- The lesson will have narration for the PowerPoints that can be clicked on, or the PowerPoint can be read independently. Lesson 2 Sight Words Objective 2-Given the 200 Fry word list, students will identify each word within 3 seconds and will also demonstrate sight word knowledge by reading sight word phrase cards within 5 seconds.

Initial Instruction-The students will begin the lesson with a PowerPoint that has timing rehearsed to say the word after 3 seconds. The 3 second delay allows for students to attempt the word before the word is given. The students will practice the assigned PowerPoint, based on teacher placement, and then be allowed to go to spellingcity.com. This site will be linked in Google Classroom and students will use their log in to log on and practice the sight words list given by the teacher. The sight word lists are broken up into sets of tens, so placement will likely be at 1 unless students have a stronger sight word vocabulary. Students will then have the options teach me, play a game, flashcards, and vocabulary test. The students will pick the flash cards and then the games. This gives students a chance to reinforce just 10 sight words and focus only on those 10 after being exposed to all 200 in the previous activity. Generative Strategy-Rehearsal/practice of the 200 Fry words. Students would practice the PowerPoint in the lesson to get the sight words within seconds (Morrison, Ross, Kalman, & Kemp p.143). Differentiation-Students have the ability to hear and read all the PowerPoint presentations. They can also pick their starting point (1-10, 11-20, etc) to have a rote practice of the sight words. The games bring in other media sources for students as well. Lesson 3 Nonsense Words and Phonics Objective 3-Students will transfer the phonics and other strategies learned to decode unfamiliar words in their reading. a. Use word recognition strategies (phonetic and nonsense word strategies) to identify unfamiliar words. Initial Instruction-Students will watch the phonics YouTube video in segments (cutting the video

after a few letter sound introductions). Each day students will see a phonics video and then also complete a nonsense word PowerPoint. The nonsense word PowerPoint gives a three second pause to allow students to read the “whole word” before the word is read to them. Generative Strategy- Students will decode several words on a game. The game will give a word and then they have to click nonsense or real word. Then if the word is real they will create a sentence using the real word. Students can also have a word sort based on the sound they hear in the words (long a, aw, ie, etc). They place the word under the correct heading based on the sound they hear in the word. Differentiation- Students have the presentation given in various forms, using pictures, words, and videos. When students create the sentences, there can be a word bank for students to have as well as extra space if students want to create a story using several words instead of just using one word. Lesson 4 Putting It All Together Objective 4-​Given a first grade reading passage, s​tudents will read text at a rate of at least 69 words per minute with 90% accuracy or better. Initial Instruction- Students will read have a cold read based on a grade level passage. They will record themselves reading the passage for later use. Then students will have that same passage read to them while they follow along. After being read to, the student reads the passage with the speaker, and then finally records their passage on their own. Generative Strategy-After recording the cold read and the final read, students will compare their voices and judge if it is a fluent read or not a fluent read. Then they will type in a blog format (audio will be recorded for the teacher to hear) why they characterized their reading the way they

did. Differentiation-Reading level can be varied to support student success. If a students is not successful with the appropriate grade level text, the text could be remediated and more repetition and practice could be offered. Instructional Design Summary Lesson Lesson 1:

record it, and share it with their teacher. Formative Evaluation Plan In this module I was the SME, however for the formative assessment I have asked

Michelle Castillo to review the module. Michelle serves as the Instructional Support Teacher for ELA for our county. She has previously taught grades 2-5 and now works under the ELA coordinator training teachers K-5 in all areas of reading and language arts. She is a wonderful resource that I use on a daily basis. I know her feedback will be thorough and helpful which will create a more useful learning module. Below is a copy of the survey Ms. Castillo will complete. I chose a short answer so Ms. Castillo could expand on her answers when needed. Content Appropriateness and Accuracy 1. How was the sequence of the module? Would you change the sequence, if so please explain? 2. Is the differentiation apparent and appropriate? If no, please explain. 3. Is the time given appropriate within each lesson? If no, please explain. Completeness 1. Were objectives 1-4 met? If no, please list the objective(s) not met. 2. Is the unit user friendly in terms of technology? 3. Do you feel as though all lessons should be included? If so, please explain. Usability and Appeal 1. Was the overall instruction easy to use? If no, please explain. 2. Did the graphics and layout add to the instruction? If so, please explain. 3. Were the PowerPoint presentations effective in delivering instruction? If no, please explain. 4. Overall, what areas could the instruction be improved? After completing the online module the learners will also complete a survey (sad face,

straight face, happy face) using google forms. The form will also have “other” as a choice that students or the SME could add any notes if they are able. I may need to also ask assistance with this form and will ask Regina Yeargin, an informational technology specialist, to be a SME in the area of technology (graphics, google classroom, google forms, etc.). The information in the survey will help me to gauge if any revisions need to be made from the student perspective. I believe adults can view the module multiple times, however students can give us feedback through their eyes to help improve the instruction that adult eyes do not necessarily see. Below is a screenshot the survey on Google forms and then the survey questions are below the pictures.

1. How long did it take you to complete the lessons? (only two choices on this question, pictured above) 2. Do you know what fluency is now? (happy face, straight face, frowny face pictured above). 3. Was using google classroom easy for the fluency lessons? 4. Did you understand each lesson? 5. Do you feel like your fluency got better than when you first started? 6. Were the fluency lessons fun?

7. What lesson did you like the most? 8. What was the best part of the instruction? 9. Is the voice clear on the PowerPoints? 10. How could I make this fluency unit better? (This is an open-ended questions for students to type in their response)
