Yes, I think so. I'll have to double check and input the data and compare it to last semester. But it looks like my student has improved enough to have the data bear out. I'm glad that I can move on and work on the other requirements of the course. It's been a tough semester, and it's not done yet.
Our time with our kids is over or ending. Let us be appreciative of every evidence of improvement, no matter how small. Our time with them can only be a good thing in their literacy lives--"we did everything that could be done."
"Let us be sure that those who come after will say of us in our time, that in our time we did everything that could be done. We finished the race; we kept them free; we kept the faith." --Ronald Reagan (http://www.brainyquote.com/quotes/keywords/done.html)
Building on students’ experience in ED643: Literacy Assessment, this course focuses on reading and writing instruction for children and adolescents with diverse learning needs.

Indeed a tough semester. Time is going so quickly and now we need to concentrate on our other requirements. Good luck to us all!
ReplyDeleteI almost feel like crying, when you state your comments in such a poetic way. Our sessions may be over with them, but they're just beginning a new chapter in their lives. Hopefully, they'll continue where we left off...to success!
