That's So Second Grade  (TpT Seller) re: My Vocabulary Graph for Student Data Notebooks
Hi Jen,

I am wondering if you use the Text Talk Vocabulary words to guide your vocabulary instruction? How do you assess your students' understanding of vocabulary? Thanks!
May 19, 2013 Report inappropriate comment
Jen Jones-Hello Literacy
Jen Jones-Hello Literacy  (TpT Seller)
At our school, the K and 2nd grade team use the Beck & McKeown Text Talk lessons to guide their vocabulary instruction. All students have a vocabulary notebook where students track their own vocabulary word & phrase understanding (using a 4 point rubric) and their vocabulary learning growth. Students have to "teach" their parents a new vocabulary word every week. So, to answer your question, receptive vocabulary is assessed through running record comprehension and expressive vocabulary assessment is mainly formative.

I'm not sure how to reply to your reply (haha!) but thanks so much! I currently have another one I use but I am not 100% happy with it. I use the fluency ones from FAIR (we do not use FAIR at my school, but it is what I used at another school last year and there is no set fluency test here) and I really like this one, so I will have to buy it! :) Thanks so much!

smiedema88 re: RTI: 60 Fluency Passages for Progress Monitoring Reading Skills & Interventions
Hi :). I was wondering, can this RTI Fluency Packet be used to track regular student fluency data? As in, can I use this to test my students every 20 days or so to see where they stand fluency wise and not rely on one assessment (DRA) to determine that?
May 15, 2013 Report inappropriate comment
Jen Jones-Hello Literacy
Jen Jones-Hello Literacy  (TpT Seller)
Yes, definitely!!! Even students in Tier 1, without interventions, should be checked periodically and given feedback, for sure! 20 days is a great number, that's about once a month. The average rate of improvement (ROI) for fluency in grades 2-5 is about 1 word a week. So if a student is reading 70 wpm at the beginning of any month, they should be at, at least, 74 wpm to make "hit" the next universal screening benchmark target. Good luck! Jen❤

Hi Jen,
I purchased your beautiful labels for my classroom library makeover, and I realize now that the labels are much too big for what I was intending them for. Is there any possibility that they could be made smaller to fit on the end of a magazine file so that I could see each label when the magazine files (book boxes in my world) are all on the bookshelf?
Thanks so much,

I have already purchased your wonderful Common Core Fiction packet for $20.00. I would like to purchase the Nonfiction now that it is available. However, I see that it is available for $20 separately or as part of the bundle for $32. My question, is there a way to purchase the nonfiction packet for $12? TpT suggests I go ahead and purchase it for $20 and then with your permission, they will refund the $8. Would that be OK with you? If so, you would need to let TpT know you are OK with it. Thanks so much for your great products!

Hi Jen,
I am a huge fan of your work published on Teacherspayteachers. Next year, I will be teaching second grade with common core and am exploring some options for intervention materials geared for the "strategic" learning (not the high or the bottom low.) Most of our students are second language learners. I will need decoding and fluency materials to support our intervention block that is easy to follow. What materials do you sell that might meet this need?
May 11, 2013 Report inappropriate comment
Jen Jones-Hello Literacy
Jen Jones-Hello Literacy  (TpT Seller)
First of all, congratulations on your move! Anything in my store that says RTI could be used for students needing more phonics and fluency practice, used either as practice during the intervention intself or used to progress monitor the phonics or fluency intervention. So, the 60 Fluency Passages, the Foundational Literacy packs ($10 each) and I'm working on a 3rd set now. English language learners also struggle with phonological awareness due to lack of english language exposure so my Two Peas phonological awareness curriculum is just the repeated practice and exposure they need...that is for sale, either by the month or the months are bundled together in a product at www.hellotwopeasinapod.com. You may also want to check out the free resources available at www.fcrr.org under the link Student Center Activities.
Good luck!

Shouldn't it be "rhymes"?
May 11, 2013 Report inappropriate comment
Jen Jones-Hello Literacy
Jen Jones-Hello Literacy  (TpT Seller)
No. Although rimes do rhyme with other words in the same word family. Monosyllabic words can be split into two parts - the onset and the rime - each of which are smaller than syllables, but larger than phonemes. The onset is the initial consonant sound like p- in pig or sp- in spot, and the rime is the vowel and the rest of the syllanle that follows like -ig and -ot in pig and black.

Since they are .png images files, they work best in a desktop publishing program like Powerpoint or Publisher, where "layering" graphics works better. Since Word is more of a word processing program, you *can* add these images to a word page, but it's not as user-friendly and can be tricky to place it exactly where you want it.

Hi! That is a great question....even though rimes (or word families) involve combining two spelling patterns, whether it's a short vowel and and a consonant (ex: ip), or a long vowel pattern and a consonant (ex: ike), or a short vowel and an ending consonant blend (ex: ump), I would still recommend the rimes set as more foundational than Set 1 or 2 due the number of irregular consonant and vowel blends in those sets...which are appropriate for first grade. I hope that helps! Jen ❤

Thank you so much, I work on it at least 2 hours a night right now...and want it to be so great (and it doesn't help that I'm a perfectionist)...do you think I can use my same border from RL on the RIT packet too?
Take care,
Jen

I paid for this book but did not print it off because it would download to page 160 something and would not completely down load. Now I don't know how to get a copy of this book. Please tell me what I need to do. I want it for my first grade class. I have not copied any of it. Sharolyn Curenton

Hi! Thank you for your purchase! To download the product, you can always redownload it from your My Purchases button. Also, make sure you have the latest version of Adobe Reader. If you are using Mac, you cannot download in Preview mode. If none of these work, I can email you the file. Let me know.

I purchased the mixed up borders set and when I printed the page that I used the border on, the border is a little fuzzy. Can you help me?
Thanks!

Hi! When printed on paper, the borders are a tad fuzzy upon close examination. However, even when printing the borders large-scale, it's really not noticable unless you look at it very closely. There's a picture in this blog post of my border enlarged for the TCRWP Writing Workshop Summer Institute welcome sign. http://helloliteracy.blogspot.com/2012/06/tcrwp-ca-trip-update-3.html?m=1
If you're still still not satisfied, email me.

Hi Jen! First, I want you to know how extremely excited I am for your upcoming K-2 RI bundle! I have been looking every day just in case you were able to post it early because I can't wait to see it! Second, I was wondering if you were considering doing anything for the reading foundational skills. It was just a fleeting thought I had as I leafed through my lesson plans for the week and searched for some ideas. If not, no worries! Thanks for all your amazing work!

Thanks for the comments and suggestions, it will probably be more like this weekend when the RIT bundle is ready...it's another large file. I will consider one for the foundational skills! Definitely. Thanks and take care! Jen ❤

The PAST stands for Phonological Awareness Skills Assessment. It's from the book, Sounds in Action, but the assessment itself is free to download on my blog, at www.helloliteracy.blogspot.com Here is the post that includes the assessment, and other Digging Deeper assessments.....
