I met with this Foundation level student, and reviewed the vocabulary that we learned in our first session. I viewed reading lesson. He
understanding of senctence structure in his few weeks here is impressive. At his request, we reviewed then practiced personal and possessive
pronouns.
I then had him identify the objects around us, and I asked him to discriminate between singular and plural. For example, I pulled a leaf off
of a tree and said, "Leaf". He wrote it in his grammar log and repeated, "Leaf". Then, I pulled a handfull of leaves off the tree and said,
"Leaves". I showed him how to spell leaves, which he wrote in his log. Next, I said Winter, Spring, Summer, Fall. After each word, I looked
to see if he understood his seasons. He did. I repeated these words again. But this time when I said 'Fall', I dropped a handful of leaves,
and repeated 'Fall". He made the connection that Fall is the season when the leaves fall off the trees.
We spent the remainder of our time, with learning and using new vocabular.
