Reflections on Observation Task 3: Teaching Shared/Guided Reading

1. Which concepts about print (CAP), phonological awareness, letter knowledge and or
phonics did the teacher focus on?

a) What strategies/activities did the teacher use to help the students understand
the concept being taught?

The teacher used the reading approach, specifically look and say. The teacher
was showing students the seeds and plants, as well as what the plant needs like
water, air and soil in individual pictures after reading the story.

2. Were there any initial/medial/final sounds, punctuation, sight words or word families that were
covered during the lesson? If they were, select (a); if they were not, select (b).

a. What was the purpose of teaching these concepts. Explain its importance.

The purpose of read this story is about plants, how it's grown, and what a plant
needs to grow. There were familiar words that students know it, such as seeds,
water, air, light, all of these words the students knew. In addition, teacher
reviewed these words at the beginning of the class in order to remind the
students.

a) Provide one (1) activity example of how initi al/medial/fi nal sounds, punctuation,
sight words or word families could have been could have been covered during the
lesson.
