flagread it, then spell it
Drawn for this page. Reading a pattern and spelling it are two different proofs; a practicum lesson needs time for both.

How to use it

  1. Start a record with the practicum student’s code and the lesson date.
  2. Mark each part of the lesson as taught, skipped or not planned.
  3. Count words read and dictation words correct.
  4. Add the supervisor’s feedback in their words.
  5. Write the next lesson’s first step, then copy the record to that date.

What the record is for

Why dictation matters

Structured literacy teaches reading and spelling of the same pattern together. Dictation shows whether the student can produce the pattern, which is a stronger sign of learning than reading it.

Accuracy

Many structured literacy programs look for high accuracy, around 90 percent or more, before introducing a new pattern. Use your program’s own mastery rule where it has one.

Your program’s rules

Training programs set their own lesson plan format, hour requirements and observation schedule. This record supports them; it does not replace them.
