Do you care? Is it easy? Can we do it? Environment—the path—Are there obstacles? Can we make it simpler? Can we make it automatic?

My goal is to increase my students’ word identification to a class average of 3.0. Upon analyzing the results of the Assessment of Comprehension, I identified my classes’ average as a 41% in September. My goal is to increase my students’ comprehension to a class average of 80%. Using the Monster Test, I identified my classes’ average scores as Semiphonetic/Phonetic. My goal is to increase my students’ phonics and spelling skills to Transitional. 1st Grade Teach for America Teacher
