Get ready to enhance your students' reading comprehension and critical thinking skills with this meticulously crafted, teacher-approved resource, which aligns perfectly with Texas educational standards.

This assessment tool provides a tailored and effective method for evaluating and enhancing students' reading abilities, ultimately promoting literacy success in the French K-2 classroom. By incorporating the principles of the Science of Reading, this tool ensures a systematic and evidence-based approach to evaluating reading progress.

Phonemic awareness, which focuses on recognizing and manipulating individual sound in words, is integrated to improve French students' ability to decode and spell words accurately. Additionally, phonological awareness, which involves understanding the sound structure of language is emphasized to enhance overall language and reading skills.

I developed this with a dear friend long ago so we could easily keep track of our assessments for Kindergarten students. Flash forward a few years (many years, actually) and I have now been able to incorporate my knowledge of Science of Reading and concepts from the resources we use in our Province to assess students learning French in a variety of learning environments.

I now teach a group of Grade 1s and a group of Grade 2s and use this assessment tool 3 times a year! Game changer!

How to use this:

Make enough copies for each student in your classroom and assign an assessment binder for data collection.

I use the first two sheets at the beginning of the year in order to inform where my reading program needs to start.

Use the tool throughout the school year to chart progress and to see areas of concern

You can also start to see trends and areas of need where you may need to review certain sounds as a whole class or perhaps a small group.

What's in the resource?

- 8 Assessment pages

-simple sounds, alphabet sounds that are in random order

-les sons complexes: ou, on, an, in, oin, eu, au, eau, etc

-beginning blends: ba, pi, to, gu, etc.

-CVC combinations

-nonsense syllables that test the decoding skills of students once they have mastered the basic sounds and complex sounds

-data tracking boxes at the bottom of each page for three times a year of evaluation

-quick reference so you can track each students' trajectory

What grade level is appropriate?

I use this resource in my Grade 1 and 2 classrooms and our Kindergarten team use this resource at the end of term 1 and end of the year for data collection.

DESCRIPTION

Students always need additional support in mastering the skill of inferencing. You can use the Freak the Mighty Multiple-Choice Inference Task Cards to help students practice making inferences.

Task Cards

• The first set of 16 Inference Task Cards consists of a short selection/passage from the book followed by an inference-based question. There are four multiple choice answers choices that students choose from. Students read the passage and choose the correct answer. Students will need to pay close attention to details to choose the correct answer. The inference questions are centered around character traits, character relationships, and situations. A Student Answer Sheet is included for students to write their answers.

• The second set of 16 Inference Task Cards is the actual “Answer Key” set. The Answer Key set of Task Cards highlight the correct multiple-choice answers in the color red and highlights relevant evidence that supports the correct answers in the color yellow.

• This is engaging practice for your students as it is perfect for mini-lessons, whole class instruction, cooperative learning, intervention groups, literacy centers, and small group instruction.

Test Format Version (Print and Digital)

• Also included is a "Test Format" version of the Inference Task Cards (same passages in the Task Cards). This includes an ANSWER KEY as well! The test consists of 16 multiple-choice inference questions.

Inference Graphic Organizer (Print and Digital)

• Included is a one-page Three-Column Graphic Organizer Chart that requires students to make evidence-based inferences. Students record the following information in the Inference Graphic Organizer: Information from the text, their own Prior/Background Knowledge, and Inferences. This is a great scaffolding tool for ELL and Special Ed students.

Inference Bookmarks

• These bookmarks include sentence stems consistent with making inferences. Students can reference these inference stems to stimulate their thinking, increase comprehension, and actively engage in reading and discussion. Students can also use these inference stems in their writing! These bookmarks can be used to support reading comprehension in any text.

Suggestions on how you can use the Multiple-Choice Inference Task Cards:

1. Quiz or Test - You can make a copy of the set of Task Cards and distribute to each student as a quiz or test. You, as the teacher , can then select the Task Card Inference question that students performed the lowest on and use that to review and develop/modify your instruction.

2. Small Group Instruction - You can have students engage in small group instruction where you provide additional support on the skill of inferencing. These Inference Task Cards will support that type of instruction. You can have all students in small groups practice with the same inference task card question number or you can distribute 1-2 Task Cards to each student to practice, then review.

3. Mini Lesson - You can load these Inference Task Cards on the Smartboard and use them to demonstrate how to make an inference. They can also be used to discuss the importance of details and how they are used to encourage inferential thinking. You can even use these Task Cards to discuss the difference between relevant details and irrelevant details. Finally, you can use these Inference Task Cards during the guided practice portion of your lesson.

4. Formative Assessment / Exit Slips - These Inference Task Cards make a great, quick formative assessment! You can easily check for understanding by distributing 1-2 Task Cards to each student to complete. You can circulate the room to do a "Quick Check" to see if students "Got it." You can also use these Task Cards as Exit Slips by distributing 1-2 Task Cards to each student to complete and hand in to you before they leave.

5. Partner Study - You can have students pair up and “test each other.” Partners not only ask each other to choose the correct multiple-choice answer, but to highlight or underline specific details in the selection/passage to support their inference-based answer. The Answer Key set of Task Cards are helpful in the sense that students can take ownership of reviewing the correct answers and sharing that with their partners**.**

6. Test Prep Review - You can use these Task Cards to review how to answer multiple-choice questions. You can also use these cards to teach students a variety of multiple-choice strategies (process of elimination, context clues, textual evidence, tone, etc.) to help them select the right answers to questions and aid comprehension.

This FIGURATIVE LANGUAGE STATIONS activity is a fun and effective method for giving students practice at analyzing the most important types of figurative language. Students will develop the skills not only to identify types of figurative language but also to explain how figurative language contributes to the meaning of a literary text!

Students will learn about figurative language while gaining exposure to the most profound and thought-provoking quotations from the world's greatest writers! They'll be asked to analyze the figures of speech in over 120 inspiring quotations by a diverse range of important authors: Chinua Achebe, Louisa May Alcott, Maya Angelou, Jane Austen, James Baldwin, William Blake, Emily Dickinson, John Donne, Louise Erdrich, F. Scott Fitzgerald, Robert Frost, Zora Neale Hurston, John Keats, Harper Lee, Toni Morrison, George Orwell, Zadie Smith, John Steinbeck, Henry David Thoreau, Mark Twain, Oscar Wilde, Virginia Woolf, and many others.

This stations activity focuses on the 8 types of figurative language that are used most commonly in literature: metaphor, simile, metonymy, personification, apostrophe, paradox, oxymoron, and hyperbole.

Here's what you'll find inside this 40-page resource:

• Stations Worksheets (x8): This resource includes a total of 8 worksheets focused on 8 types of figurative language.

• Literary Devices Glossary: This 1-page glossary features the 8 types of figurative language that are used most frequently in literature. The glossary includes definitions of the 8 types of figurative language as well as one or two examples of how each figure of speech gets used in famous quotations. Students can use the glossary to study in preparation for the quizzes on figurative language. (1 page)

• Quiz: All Types of Figurative Language (x2): These two quizzes focus on all 8 types of figurative language.

The entire 40-page resource will come to you in two separate formats: Word doc and PDF.

If you don't have Microsoft Word, you'll still be able to access the entire resource as a PDF — which is easy to navigate and quick to print!

Hey guys,

I'm Richard Williams, The Angry Teacher. I've been teaching for 18+ Years , and have amassed quite a bit of knowledge to share. Please consider joining the Angry Teacher family; we'll enjoy having you in the fam!

Please consider checking out the other short story materials and resources in my store.

Also, guys, remember that leaving REVIEWS is a way that TeachShare gives you credit on products! So let's do it!

Thanks for stopping by!

Do you students work on fluency? If your answer is yes, then this product is for you!

My students have been absolutely obsessed with rainbows this year, so I gave this common retell practice a makeover by adding a simple splash of color! Let me just say… my students LOVED IT!

I use this product in both whole group and small group settings!! Curious? Here's how!

Whole group:

While reading our Wonders weekly stories, my students will be asked to turn to their partners and give a retell of the story. Sometimes we do this after each page, sometimes halfway through the story, sometimes after we're done. Why? My kids have learned quickly to pay attention to what we're reading because you never know when a partner retell is coming!

Small group:

Mondays are fluency day in our class!

First, we discuss what type of text we're reading based on the title. We get our partners and quickly decide who's reading first and who's giving feedback first. After the minute timer goes off, the reading partner uses the printout as a guide for their retell based on if the story is fiction or nonfiction. Feedback partner listens and uses to rubric and dry erase markers (we keep ours in our sheet protectors to cut down on copies).

It's been a great experience!

Beyond the primary grades teachers often seem to forget about checking students reading fluency. This is a simple to use form for students to provide themselves a self-feedback on their read aloud fluency. Teachers can then use the same form to provide their own feedback on the students reading fluency. File states to use Audacity (a free download online) but other recording programs/devices may be used - this is just a personal choice/what is available on our school computers. Included in this package is how I used this program successfully in my classroom. Please don't forget to take a look at the other items I have available in my store!
