1. Mr. Drake is a first grade teacher who is using the whole language approach when teaching
about animals. Before reading a story and what they are expected to learn. What's the reason for
doing this? ✔✔He's modeling a pre-reading skill in order to teach it to the young readers.
Comprehension is demonstrated when the reader questions his or her intent for reading.
Comprehension increases when students become aware of the focus and expectation for the
activity. It also teaches students that we read for different purposes.
2. Mr. Drake's class has an extensive discussion on the needs of house pets. In response to a
student who says that her family abandoned their cat in a field because it ate to much. Mr. Drake
asks, "What is one way to save pets that are no longer wanted?' This exercise involves what level
of questioning? ✔✔Evaluation. A question testing whether or not student can synthesize
information will require students to generalize from given facts, draw conclusions, and use old
ideas to create new ones. Students will use the information discussed in class to generate
suggestions to save unwanted pets.
3. Mr. Drake has students who read at different levels. He has the students in groups of two, (one
skilled and one remedial reader) reading selected stories to one another. The students read the
, story and question each other until they feel that they both understand the story. By planning the
lesson this way, Mr. Drake has ✔✔utilized the students strengths and weaknesses to maximize
time, materials, and overall quality of the learning environment. The remedial reader receives
instruction and the skilled reader receives reinforcement. The peer support system one of the
main principles for cooperative learning. It uses alternate teaching resources, the student
themselves enhance the learning environment.
4. Mr Drake is continuing his lesson on the animal kingdom. He wants to ensure that the students
learn as much as they can about animals. so he incorporates information they are familiar with
into new information. Knowing that these are first grade learners, what should he incorporate
when planning their learning experience? ✔✔Students will overestimate how much information
that they can retrieve from memory. Students at this age do not have cognitive skills required to
realize how much they have actually learned, or how much they will actually be able to retain.
5. Before reading a story about a veterinary hospital, Mr. Drake constructs a semantic map of
related word and terms using the students input. What is the main intention for doing this?
✔✔To demonstrate a meaningful relationship between concepts of the story and prior knowledge
of the students. By mapping out previous knowledge, information already known can be
transferred to support new information.
