TPEP Criterion: 2 - Instruction
Procedure: Ask
your kids to scan -- not read -- a chunk of text for words they don't know.
Could be new words they've never seen, or just words difficult to decode.
You post the words on chart paper, screen or board.
Ask class to rate the words on a 4 point scale.
4 = I can use the word and tell what it means
3 = I can use the word
2 = I've heard the word but don't really know what it means
1 - I've never heard the word before
This is for words that your text lists as well as any others. It will give you a picture of the group's vocab knowledge beyond the six or so recommended words.
