EDT 540 Unit 3 Discussion Post Response

 


Unit 2 Review Windi Bishop.
First graders are having problem sounding out words.  Phonemes, causing problems with reading.  

Great application, as I read through it I reflected on a similar process my typing class had to go through.  It was the toughest thing in the world to not spell out the word as you type.  The minute we stopped spelling the words and started saying the words as we typed them, our WPM (Words per minute) jumped from 20-30 to 50-60.  Odd how the simple fact of spelling holds you back, but it could have been the manual typewriter as well.  Only a couple people in the class got to use the Brand new electric typewriters.

Given the disparity of a typical classroom.  I kept wondering when I read this how it impacted the "Gifted" students.  I'm sure in every classroom you have the students who are above average and those below.  My mother taught 3rd Grade, and I forever will remember her talk about a couple students that impacted her life.  Some she laments and some she beams with pride.  If you only advance the class when they can articulate the sound, does that hold some students back?  In this unit 3 they want us to break classes apart and let them teach themselves.  It's kind of a foreign topic to me and one I'm struggling with and I know that wasn't the course work this week, but seems like this topic might have been better suited for group activities?  Regardless great job, I'm learning something every week about education in our younger adults.
