PRAXIS 5205 TEACHING READING|UPDATED&VERIFIED|100% SOLVED|GUARANTEED SUCCESS

Using a plot chart to track the events in a story A teacher reviews the following student scores on a standardized reading test with the goal of determining the areas in which the student will require additional instruction. - 75thseventy fifth percentile in vocabulary knowledge - 85theighty fifth percentile in decoding - 40thfortieth percentile in comprehension - 70thseventieth percentile in fluency Based on the data, which of the following activities best addresses the student's needs? Having students say the word "airplane" and then asking them to say it again without pronouncing "air" A kindergarten teacher plans a lesson designed to give students guided practice in learning a phonological awareness skill. Having students participate in which of the following activities best meets the teacher's goal? Searching a story to reach a conclusion based on clues an author gives and prior knowledge to construct meaning that goes beyond what is literally stated A first-grade teacher selects a picture book that retells the well-known fairy tale Goldilocks and the Three Bears to read aloud to the class. Following the first oral reading of the text, the teacher distributes a graphic organizer with a set of questions for students to answer as the text is read again. During the second reading, the teacher pauses at different parts of the story and asks students to independently answer one of the questions related to that part of the story on the work sheet. A portion of the graphic organizer the teacher uses is shown below. The teacher's instructional method best engages students in which of the following thinking processes related to successful reading comprehension? Using mentor texts to encourage imitation of effective writing A first-grade teacher works with small groups of students to teach them how to develop their writing skills. Which of the following methods best fosters the students' ability to use correct mechanics, such as punctuation and capitalization, in their own writing? Say "frame." Say it again without the /r/. Which of the following phonemic manipulations is the most complex and is generally developed last by most students? Planning direct instruction using multimedia methods to introduce words in rich contexts A third-grade teacher's reading instruction includes sources from multiple content areas. During a science lesson, students are reading a trade book about plants; the book contains many new and difficult vocabulary words, such as "chlorophyll," "germinate," and "photosynthesis." Which of the following teaching activities will best help the students develop an understanding of the new words? Responding to simple questions with yes or no What oral language milestone goes first? Answering questions using complete sentences and a variety of sentence structures. What oral milestone comes second? Using content-related vocabulary correctly during conversations. What oral milestone comes third? Making an oral presentation that is appropriate for the given audience What oral milestone comes fourth? Explaining the process in detail and modeling it by thinking aloud while reading the passage Ms. Jones introduces visualizing as a comprehension skill to her first-grade students using a short passage of text. Which of the following strategies illustrates how to best introduce the skill? Improving long-term memory of a nondecodable word by engaging multiple student senses in learning A kindergarten teacher sets a benchmark goal for students to quickly recognize a set of ten new sight words within a three-week instructional time period. The teacher introduces the words by using flash cards and engages students in a series of activities that reinforce learning within authentic contexts. During this time, the teacher also creates a small-group workshop activity in which students view each word printed in large letters on a card, say the word, and then use pipe cleaners to form the word. Which of the following is the primary benefit to students of participating in the workshop activity? Students' reading skills advance as students develop greater phonemic awareness. Which of the following statements about the correlation between phonemic awareness and reading development is best supported by research? Rubric A teacher scores student writing samples using criteria that define expectations for different levels of proficiency. Which of the following tools is the teacher most likely using? Administering a phonemic-awareness assessment in which the student breaks spoken words into individual phonemes A first-grade teacher notices during guided reading that a student has difficulty decoding words such as "ran," "pet," "him," and "hot." Which of the following is the most appropriate way for the teacher to confirm the student's difficulty? Using letter tiles to build previously learned CVC words along with the new words In order to develop students' spelling skills a teacher presents the following words to the class. Chin Shut Draw Rash Which of the following strategies best utilizes a multisensory and recursive approach to teaching the spelling of these words? set the standards for student skill mastery along with a time frame indicating when the level of mastery should be achieved A primary purpose of a criterion-referenced reading benchmark is to Playing recordings of interesting stories that are above the students' reading level and discussing character development, plot, and theme A second-grade teacher reviewed data from the midyear literacy screening and compared them to the data from the beginning-of-the-year literacy screening. The data revealed that the students who were grade-level readers at the beginning of the year showed very little growth in reading comprehension, and two-thirds of the emergent readers were ready to be placed with the grade-level readers. Which of the following strategies will best help accelerate the growth of the grade-level readers? It encourages students to build on their prior knowledge of a topic. Which of the following is the most important pedagogical reason for having students complete an I-chart? Drawing random capital or lowercase letters, numbers, or other symbols. What happens in Stage 1: the emergent stage? Writing the beginning and ending consonant sounds of words What happens in Stage 2: Letter name-alphabetic spelling? writing words with long vowel patterns and r-controlled vowels What happens in stage 3: Within-word pattern spelling? Using inflectional endings, changing spellings when needed. What happens in stage 4: Syllables and affixes spelling. Vowel Digraphs A second-grade teacher guides students in using Elkonin boxes to write letters in boxes under pictures. Which of the following phonics concepts does the strategy best reinforce in the example shown? Supporting learning of the alphabetic principle A kindergarten teacher uses bright-colored chalk to write individual letters on sheets of black construction paper. Students take turns pointing a flashlight at and naming the letter on each sheet. Which of the following instructional objectives does the activity target?
