Part A. Everyone choose ONE of the following (#1 to #5 to answer). Please indicate the chapter, and number your response: (minimum 250 words). Be sure to repeat the question when posting your answer so that everyone can follow along and benefit from your learning.
Phonological Awareness

Although this video is targeting parents, it contains valuable information. View this video to determine the following:
Why is phonemic awareness important?
What are the two important phonemic awareness skills for beginning readers? Explain them.
How is phonemic awareness different from phonics?
Becoming Aware of Print

“This clip shows how 32-month-old Mira’s parents help her become aware of print” (Reading Rockets). Please view the video to determine the actions that the parents take to promote various concepts of print.

3. “It is important to note that reading aloud is most effective in the development of language and vocabulary when children are actively involved rather than passively listening” (pages 93-94). Provide ideas of ways that teachers can actively involve children in read-alouds when in a whole-class setting.
4. Many teachers encourage children to spell as best they can when they write stories, but others insist that they spell words correctly. Considering what you know about developmental spelling, what are your thoughts regarding this topic?

5. Over the past few years, the concept of writing has changed dramatically with children being encouraged to write even before they can read. What are some writing activities you might use for promoting literacy growth in young children?
PART B – Learning Theories. Everyone answer.
Summarize the theories presented by Marie Clay, Jean Piaget, and Len Vygotsky. What importance do these theories have for you?
PART C – Everyone answer.
Choose ONE of the articles in this week’s readings, and complete the phrases below. Don’t just state an opinion, but support your view with specific examples:
PLEASE INDICATE THE ARTICLE TO WHICH YOU ARE RESPONDING.
“Bringing literacy home” OR “Listening to Families Over Time”
I agree with ___________ because ______________.
I wonder about ____________because ___________.

Select one of the following case studies and write a 1200-word case study response:
Reflect upon the behaviour displayed in this learning environment and describe how you will incorporate behavioural theory frameworks as well as policy frameworks and models to respond to the behaviours displayed.
Create and discuss strategies in your response about how you can support strength-based practices with families and community.
Enlist the support of external agencies to support the child or children, the education setting and families.
Case study 1: Ruby is a five-year-old who attends a kindergarten/preschool where you are the teacher. Her family has communicated to you that she enjoys physical activities and ball games but can become upset if she is ‘losing’ or having to wait for a turn. She engages with complex conversations and discussions but may not listen to instructions when asked to stop chatting and focus on her task. She also enjoys art experiences and is able to paint and draw with great detail and expertise. Ruby has had several outbursts since she began attending three months ago. On four separate occasions, she has physically struck out at other children in the group by punching and kicking them. She has also been noticed pinching other children and then running away so the child does not see her. These incidents have been observed and documented. Conversations with her family so far have been informal and they do not seem to think her behaviour is a concern.
Case study 2: Rufus is a three-year-old who has always seemed happy and cognitively engaged with learning but in recent weeks he has started to become withdrawn. You have observed him in the outside playspace and he appears isolated and does not play with the other children. Rufus is reluctant to join group activities, and when he does participate, he remains quiet and does not appear to contribute to the discussion. Upon discussion with his family, they have said they see no changes with him at home and when Rufus returns home from kindergarten, he tells them all about the things he has been doing.
Case study 3: Cassie, Ella and Amy are all four years old and they love playing in the home corner or dramatic play areas. Cassie and Ella often lead the playscriipts and sometimes Amy is left out from the play. On some occasions, she has been told she is not allowed to enter the home corner and she stands and watches, rather than seeking out other children to play with. You have asked your co-educator to observe the situation and he has attempted to guide Amy with skills to enable her to enter the space, but he notes that whenever this happens, she has to be the baby or the dog and is not allowed to move or speak. Amy likes a range of learning experiences and she has a baby brother. Her family says that she has good social skills with her cousins and family friends, and she enjoys coming to kindergarten, but has started to speak about how some of the children are mean to her.
When approaching your case study response, remember that you have a snapshot of information about the learner and therefore careful consideration is needed when providing strategies and identifying reasons for the behaviour.
Your case study response should include:
an introduction and conclusion
identification of behaviours and analysis of the reasons why you think they are happening, using evidence to support this interpretation
identification, creation and discussion of a variety of effective strategies and interventions that could guide the child in the case study to self-regulate their behaviour within the learning environment
identification of how you would prepare and plan within the physical and social learning environment to contribute to the child’s relationship with others and learning
identification of family, cultural and ethical considerations related to the case, including a discussion about how you would support inclusive and ethical practices with families and community
identification of relevant support agencies that support the child/children’s learning and support teachers and family understandings
consideration and discussion of policy frameworks, strategy and models, and how you would apply and make effective use of these
consideration and discussion of the behavioural learning theories that have been used to guide your approaches to behaviour management
a reference list.
Essential readings/reference
Porter, L. (2016). Young children’s behaviour: Guidance approaches for early childhood educators (4th ed.). Crows Nest, Australia: Allen & Unwin.
This assignment requires you to engage with a case study in more detail and consider how you would respond as an educator to support and guide each child’s behaviour. The response for this assignment, therefore, requires more depth and detail.
In completing this assignment, you will draw together the behaviour guidance theoretical frameworks as well as policy frameworks and models considered in the unit to respond to a range of behaviours displayed in the learning environment. You are required to create strategies and describe these in your response, considering how they support inclusive and ethical practices with families, community and support agencies.

Graph the seven data points and plot a trend line.
Using 37 as the week 7 benchmark, plot a goal line and compute the goal ROI.
Post your graph in your initial post by downloading the graph below, plotting the points, drawing a new goal line after the start of the intervention, then taking a screenshot and inserting the picture at the beginning of your post.
Compute his ROI and compare it to his goal ROI (gap analysis) (Salvia et al., 2017).
Use Salvia, Ysseldyke and Witmer, 2017) to suggest other variables that might be changed.
Using this data and what you know about RTI, state whether he is meeting his goal and what you would recommend for Alejandro going forward?
What would you say to his parents (Brown, Skow, & the IRIS Center, 2009a, pp. 26-28)?
Describe what other parts of the RTI process (using all assigned materials) could come into play in this scenario.
