books is at 69, which indicates that his instructional level is Supported
reading level A-C books. reading practice
to help recognize
Level A-C words with
automaticity.
Next Steps: Word study with Santiago will begin by having him sort pictures containing short i and
short u so he can practice hearing the different vowel sounds in the middle of the words. Next, he will
practice sorting pictures containing short vowels with an oddball category so he can practice listening to
the sound patterns. After the picture sorts Santiago will receive more practice with short vowels through
sorting word patterns. This will help him to visually recognize patterns and he can begin to complete
writing sorts containing short vowels to give him further practice. After he has mastered short vowels I
will begin to have Santiago practice sorting pictures containing digraphs so he can differentiate the
sounds. After this, Santiago will practice digraph feature sorts so he can master using digraphs in his
writing and reading.
Informal Reading Inventory:
Analysis: Santiago’s word recognition score was 13 words in a minute. At the end of first grade, a word
recognition score of 45 words in a minute predicts successful print processing. This indicates he has a
developing sight word vocabulary. Santiago’s reading accuracy was 69% on the PrePrimer level D
passage. This indicates that level D/E texts are at his frustration level and his instructional level is level
A-C texts. Santiago understands concept of word, as he was able to match spoken words to written
words while reading. He understands that each word is separate, and that words are separated by a space
within each sentence.
Next Steps: Santiago will need more practice with reading level A-C texts independently and
instructionally. He needs to understand the purpose of reading a lot of books. Santiago will make more
progress in reading when he reads a lot books, rereads texts, and reads a variety of genres.
Writing Progression Inventory:
Writer’s Workshop Conference:
Step 2: He could read his pictures and some of his words in his story.
Step 3: My suggestion for Santiago is to find his purpose and audience for writing. Once he understands
the purpose of writing he will be more likely to slow down and write a letter for the sounds he hears. I
will ask him to share with his audience a small moment story about himself and explain to him that his
audience wants to learn more about him.
Step 4: Santiago will practice implementing this strategy as he rehearses his story to me two or three
times before he begins writing and drawing. He will practice writing a letter for the sounds he hears in
each word so he can read his writing. At the end of writing he will share his story.
Summary:
Santiago’s greatest strengths are in his ability to generate a story and write a lot of texts about his story.
He is excited about sharing stories with others, which contributes to great writing. Santiago needs to
practice the short vowel features and digraphs. This will certainly help with reading PrePrimer texts at
an instructional level. He needs to read and write everyday so he understands that lots of practice helps
him make progress in literacy. The volume and variety of texts that he reads will support his growth in
vocabulary acquisition, recognizing short vowels and digraphs, and fluency.
