Meeting the Needs of Every Grade 1 Child
The child with stanines in the:
0 - 2 range is unlikely to ‘catch up’ without immediate, intensive expert teaching.
3 - 4 range is already struggling with average tasks.
4 - 6 range is able to participate in and benefit from average classroom activities.
7 - 9 range is probably eager to reach out to a more complex or challenging task.

If she (a teacher) works alongside a child
letting him do all that he can but
supporting the activity when he reaches
some limit by sharing the task she is more
likely to uncover the cutting edges of his
learning. He, on the other hand, will not
be bored by doing ten times over
something he already knows how to do,
but is likely to be challenged to risk
attempting the novel, knowing that help
will be offered for shared completion of
the task if he cannot do it alone.

If we keep a note of the
longest sentence we have
heard him use, we can update
it when a longer one comes
along. Length of utterance is
a reliable indicator of growth
in early oral language skills.

The teacher must make clear
to the child that what he
already knows in writing can
be of use to him in reading
and vice versa.

for Individuals, Part 2 p121
Most people find it difficult to
think of writing and reading as two
different ways of learning about
the same thing—written language.
It is like having two hands. What
you know in writing can be helpful
in your reading and vice versa, just
as the right hand can help the left
hand with holding or vice versa.
Marie Clay, 2002
Integration (of the sources of
information) occurs in reading, in
composing messages to be written,
in writing, and in rereading a
written message.

I think it is most helpful to
think of the learner (who is
successfully solving reading
problems) as building a neural
network for working on
written language and that
network learns to extend itself.

And in the end it is the individual
adaptation made by the expert
teacher to that child’s idiosyncratic
competencies and history of past
experiences that starts him on the
upward climb to effective literacy
performance.
