Notes

Coach Log Note 1:

Today Katie and I talked about the results of her baseline Spelling Screener that we created.  The screener is made up of 15 two and three syllable words.  Students are to spell the words correctly and get two scores, one for correct word and one for syllables.  Baseline average of the scores were 5/15 for words and25/36 for syllables.  She was surprised that some did so well and others did not.

She will be giving them more opportunities for practice and extra strategies to improve on their syllable spelling.  I will send her a new screener for the next checkpoint.  I ask her for a video and lesson plan prior to our next meeting.

Next Steps

To Do: Start teaching. Send video to coach along with lesson plan.
