Please view/listen to the video/ppt below. In this video I revisit some of the guidelines for the Miscue CD & write up due November 3. I have addressed some questions that have been posted in small groups or sent to me via an email. However, if you are not sure how to code a miscue, and it is causing you anxiety, email me about it. However, my tendency--if I wonder about an occasional decision you have made when I am going over your work--is to suggest an alternative view of how that miscue might be coded. Some miscues ARE judgement calls. You will be doing so many that one or two here or there that are miscoded will not make a significant difference in the overall picture. If you are ambivalent about how to code a miscue, you may indicate so on your Miscue Analysis Calculation Sheet by putting a question mark in the margin next to it. I will focus more closely on that one and let you know what I think.
When recording teh Proper Nouns/name substitutions do you record each one when it is a repeated proper noun miscue? For example, my reader read the name /Kate/ for /Katy/.
ReplyDeletePersonal question:
Also, I have stated to my students particularly in math (our math series is very multi-culturally written with names) when they encounter a name that is unfamiliar to them they can simply say the first letter of the name as it does not change the meaning. Should I move away from that guiding and ask them to approach the names with their literacy strategies?
Thanks,

Could you post the miscue analysis marking sheet on our content page as well, so I could make copies of it?
ReplyDeleteThanks,

It is in your Assignment Guidelines Packet.
