Step-by-Step Instructions:
Unlocking the Gate
Independent work should be assigned after completing either an introductory or reinforcing lesson.
Ensure you go over the directions with the students before they start.
Unlock the gate for students, allowing them to navigate the scenes and complete activities at their own pace.
Administering the Assessments
For introductory lessons, administer the "Concept Mastery Fluency Drill":
This is a timed, one-minute exercise where students read words aloud, and the teacher marks any misread words.
After one minute, the teacher taps the last word read by the student and submits the results, optionally leaving a comment.
The correct words read per minute will be displayed at the top of the student's panel.
For reinforcing lessons, conduct the "Concept Assessment":
Students read words and sentences aloud while the teacher follows along, marking any errors.
After completing the assessment, the teacher can add comments, save the results, and edit the student's score if necessary.
Repeating with Remaining Students
Repeat the assessment process for each student in the class.
Reviewing Results:
Once all assessments are complete, access and review the results from the "Reports" tab on the home screen.
Remember to review the results regularly to track your students’ progress and identify areas where they may need additional support.
By following these steps, you can effectively assign and administer independent work in iSPIRE, ensuring your students have the opportunity to practice and master the concepts taught.
