The Final Report-Apr. 27, 2010

It is amazing how building a strong phonetic base, coupled with whole language skills can increase a child's vocabulary, and reading ability with consistant effort on part of the teacher. During this case study, students who spelled phonetically, needed dictionary or referencing skill building. Others just simply became better readers, and writers. In closing, there is no doubt in my mind that small grouping, and differentiated instruction helps us understand how lesson's need to be taylored in order to suite student needs.
