Diagnostic Case Report Criteria


DIAGNOSTIC CASE REPORT CRITERIA:

Dear ED643 Students,

I'm sure that your students are grateful for all that you've done for them. As you continue to work closely with them with the various reading sessions (especially during next semester), they will READ with a more positive disposition. Keep up the instrumental work, and don't forget that you must include the following in your diagnostic case report before it can be approved:

1. For the interview with the child, it is not enough to list the child’s responses. You must also analyze the responses to describe what the data reveal about the child’s perceptions of him/herself as a reader and writer.

2. Determine the independent, instructional, and frustration levels on graded word lists, oral reading of narrative and expository, silent reading of oral and expository, as well as listening comprehension.

3. Compare these levels and analyze the data to describe the child as a reader in the conclusion of the report. Ensure that you also summarize the child as a writer in the conclusion. List and describe the recommended strategies for both reading and writing.

4. Provide an analysis of the miscues that the students made on the graded word lists and the passages. Read the section in the QRI-4 on how to analyze the miscues.

Do your best to include the aforementioned, so that you can prepare a quality Diagnostic Case Report to share with the parents. Good luck!

Best regards,
Dr. Rivera

Education is......Priceless!


“Whatever the cost of our libraries, the price is cheap compared to that of an ignorant nation.”―Walter Cronkite

 Today I was made aware that there is an IRA Grant available to fund classroom libraries.  This is an issue that battled with at the start of my career, providing trade books for my students.  Unfortunately, the issue of funding for books and materials has been ongoing for decades.  Our government shortfalls has a major impact on every school, every classroom.  
Although this is the harsh reality of our circumstances we must remember education is priceless.  We can have a lasting impact on a child's life.  We must be resilient in our efforts to infect knowledge.

    Johnavan,

    There's no doubt that education is priceless. No one can ever take away your education. We must empower our students, so that they can get the quality education that they deserve. With regards to the IRA grant, be sure to meet the deadline and follow the specific guidelines. You may find out more information and obtain the grant forms by visiting: http://iraguam.blogspot.com. Good luck!
