Assignment:

For this assignment, you will be placed (virtually) in a real-world scenario that occurs in schools. Please read the following description of the authentic performance task and complete the requirements as described in the scenario.

SCENARIO:

You are an early childhood teacher who is meeting with his/her parent to give an update on the childàachievement. Your goal is to provide a report that articulates what writing/language abilities can be demonstrated through the studentàwriting. You want to educate the parents on what they can do to support writing through language development. In writing, identify the phonemic, syntactic, morphemic writing abilities of the child. Be sure to include the samples used to support the report. Provide specific activities that the parents can implement at home to assist with any deficiencies the student is demonstrating. Your feedback should be specific and include phonemic, syntactic, morphemic abilities of the child. If no deficiencies are noted, provide suggestions that will further increase the childàlanguage and writing abilities. The activities should explain exactly how to implement each activity. Describe at least two daily activities that you will incorporate to support literacy for each area of writing ability. Parents should have an understanding of daily routines or activities and what they aim to do.
