Well done Group 4! :-)

I liked how the group used a wide range of assessment tools to assess Ben's needs and his current level of abilities

I liked how the group provided a recap of the previous session for Ben to recall what he learnt previously

I liked the neat slides and how the group bolded the key actions within the lesson plans (e.g. "think aloud")

# data[].attributes.body
Positives:

The group used bloom’s taxonomy to assess student’s learning skills which is an evidence-based framework

Intervention sessions are well scaffolded (to get student to practice each part of the story mountain session by session, from beginning to ending)

Usage of sequence strips to check his understanding and probing questions to engage his thinking

Progress monitoring through rubrics (data-based decision making from before intervention to intervention)

# data[].attributes.body
Nice work Group 4!!

Positives:

The use of bloom’s taxonomy to derive the specific needs to be assessed

Breaking up of the story mountains in smaller chunks that will be covered throughout the 5 sessions

Coherency of using the story mountain

Checking in with teacher - about Ben’s needs, looking into rubrics that are used; so that there is coherency in what the English teacher teaches and what the SENO teaches

# data[].attributes.body
- Overall, I liked how comprehensive the intervention is as a whole, and I could see and understand the intentions behind it. It helps too to have clear and succinct instructional goals and using a strategy that is appropriate for the student.

- I liked how they incorporated various assessment tools to assess Ben's needs and strengths i.e. using Bloom taxanomy for assessment (evidence-based)

Great job Group 4!

# data[].attributes.body
I like the way they in cooperated the bloom's taxonomy into their lessons.

they choose apt portions such as remember, understand and apply and worked around it.

Secondly, they highlighted all the key points on their lessons. It was easier to focus and know what they trying to explain.

Thirdly, the group had a good sequence of planning, and they transit smoothly from key member to another.

# data[].attributes.body
I like the usage of a story mountain as a strategy to help the student organise his ideas and stay on topic. The story mountain is a template that provides a visual scaffold for planning of narratives!

I also enjoyed reading the explicit lesson plans created for each session. The assessment of and for learning allowed me to understand how they were going to check on the student’s progress throughout the 5 sessions.

Awesome work, friends!!

# data[].attributes.body
1.Intervention strategy is explained in detail

2.Slides are clear and clean

3.Emphasizing constant cooperation with the class teacher

# data[].attributes.body
I enjoyed the story mountain strategy. It is a valuable tool for structuring stories and creating engaging narratives. Also, it teaches student to build up their story.

Every lesson prepared was clear and explicit. The teacher ensures that there is a clear objective for each lesson and provides a way to assess the objective at the end of the lesson.

# data[].attributes.body
Story mountain is a good strategy nicely broken down and targeted at every session. It teaches student step by step how to build up a story.

Each session lesson objective is clearly stated and the way of assessing is also fitted to the lesson objective

I like the fun activity of cutting strips. It is engaging and also able to check the student's understanding.

The group used explicit teaching and stated clearly in their slides

There is also constant partnership with the teacher

# data[].attributes.body
1. I really liked the theme of this presentation. You were using a theme based on his Interest. That is and excellent idea.

2. Takes into consideration that Sam is a visual learner and does the sessions based on Sam's Strength.

3. Sessions were broken down well into bite size chunks for Sam to learn, HOW, WHEN, WHY, WHAT and WHO.

4. I really like the certificate of Completion! SO CUTE! and a lot of effort.

# data[].attributes.body
Good job Group 3! :-)

I liked how the group considered observing the teacher's strategies used in class. By doing so, the SENO will not teach something that is contradictory to the teacher.

I liked how the group incorporated activities based on Sam's interests (e.g. Detective Pikachu) and preferred learning style (e.g. Scavenger Hunt as he is a visual and kinesthetic learner).

# data[].attributes.body
The group tapped on the child's interest throughout the sessions. They used various types of play and games to hold on to the attention of the student. They did roleplay comic strip activity.

They constantly and consistently had dialogues sessions.

They kept emphasizing the child is a visual leaner and they did all sessions very interestingly. which cater to the needs and wants of the child. Especially the word wall, they kept on expanding the wall on each session.

They also explored strategies such as Mind maps. which can be used in her other subjects. whatever they did can be used in her other subjects as well. well done!

# data[].attributes.body
Well done Group 3!!

Positives:

The conducting of classroom observations to see at which point that Sam goes “blank”

I like the clarity in the rationale of the instructional goal

The use of her interests - e.g., Pokemon to create the buy-in with the child. Lessons are structured around her love for Pokemon (e.g., in one of the sessions, there is a tie in of Pokemon with ‘rocky terrain’)

Knowing her learning styles (visual, kinesthetics) and planning the sessions around them. Activities are broken down into smaller parts and require movement.

Each session is building onto the word wall to increase in her scope of vocabulary

I love the certificate of participation!

# data[].attributes.body
1. Using a theme of interest to help motivate the student

2. Usage of visual and kinesthetic teaching styles

3. Scaffolding of tasks for each intervention session

4. Sessions are interactive and fun

# data[].attributes.body
The use of bloom taxonomy was well explained.

The use of the story mountain strategy across the 5 sessions, allowing the student recall and reinforce.

Lesson objectives were clear and SMART.

There is ongoing feedback between teacher and SENO.

# data[].attributes.body
Positives:

Usage of student’s interest (Pokemon) to engage student during learning - interesting theme (Detective Pikachu)

Sessions are well-planned and aim to meet her needs as a visual and kinesthetics learner

Visual checklists and word walls are great strategies - helps with visual clarity and memory retention

Overall intervention sessions are very fun because it is interactive and visually stimulating (usage of storytelling cards, scavenger hunt, roleplay, comic strips, mind map)

Positive reinforcement through reward - certificate of completion, Pokemon pack

# data[].attributes.body
Well done group 4!

The detailed explanation and slides enhanced my understanding of a Story Mountain. Love it!

It is interesting that they further broke down what was done during the pre-assessment to identify where the priority for the child will be.

The use of the same strategy throughout the 5 sessions is also a good idea as child can anticipate each session knowingly and there is consistency throughout.

Love how the rationale was clearly stated!

# data[].attributes.body
1. I find the instructional goals and rationale very clear in showing how Sam will benefit from the withdrawal sessions.

2. Very creative in using Sam's interest to motivate her to attend and put in her best efforts. And I can imagine Sam super thrilled with the Certificate and the cards. The Cert, having clearly shown what she had achieved, will be an excellent reinforcement!

3. The use of visuals in the sessions are excellent to support Sam's learning, especially the word wall. With the word wall being build as the sessions unfolds, it would be excellent in supporting Sam to build her vocab.

# data[].attributes.body
There was clear rationale given for the instructional goal.

I personally loved the idea of detective "pikachu" as it makes the lesson engaging and motivate the student to learn. This idea can be used in future lessons too!

The teachers provided rationale for each strategy used.

# data[].attributes.body
Group 3 Kudos to the great effort & thoughtful planning in combining a wealth of strategies!

Thematic that taps on student's interest- Pikachu

Strategies used are carefully chosen in view of student's profile : visual & kinesthetic learner

A wide variety of strategies used - word wall, mind map, "Show. don't tell" with rationale & clear explanation with many sentences examples

Certificate as a reward was a nice reinforcement.

Thanks... once again.... I learnt so much just from your sharing.

# data[].attributes.body
Classroom observation is a good idea so that the SENO can work together with teacher and not confuse the student.

I like that the group is engaging student's interest and gamified the whole lesson- detective pikachu (finding pokemon friends)

I like that lots of visuals being used - word wall and this word wall is used consistently in different lessons

uses a lot of different fun and engaging activities to cover - the treasure hunt idea is fun and engaging

# data[].attributes.body
Slides were detailed and well explained - gave me a better understanding of the story mountain strategy.

Great explanation of Blooms taxonomy and how they used it

There is constant collaboration between SENo and Teacher.

# data[].attributes.body
1. Presentation was excellent. So simple yet brilliant.

2. I liked that they actually provided real written examples in the assessment portion. That was really detailed!! Impressive!

3. The Demonstrations were very detailed and it was really engaging that a video was shown.

4. I liked how that Jack's ASD was considered and the sessions were repetitive to cater to that. It was very well thought out. Excellent!

# data[].attributes.body
The examples and analysis of the work samples and assessments were good.

The intervention was clearly shown through the video.

Very interactive lesson.

I like how there's a theme to link all sessions.

# data[].attributes.body
Great job Group 2!

- I liked how they include very clear video demonstrations of their sessions i.e. using conjuction ''and'. This is so as it allowed me to have a better understanding of the flow of the session, and how the student might respond during the intervention session.

- I also liked how they include lesson schedules, so as to pre-empt the student on what to expect during the sessions. Overall, very comprehensive slides and cute and relevant theme too!

# data[].attributes.body
Good job Group 2!

Love the freshness of the nature theme! An interesting idea!

There is use of authentic work samples and checklists. The different strategies used for each withdrawal session are clearly explained in details. Love the structure of the sessions in general. The examples given for student in the teachings are clear and concise. There is also a schedule shown indicate the parts of the lesson done.

Your efforts are really commendable! The use of video modelling is something that we all know, and yet not tried out. Very nice!

# data[].attributes.body
I liked the use of video demonstration

Their presentation was clear and well-explained

The use of student survey to check on how Jack feels is a great idea!

Clear explanation of how to use conjunctions

# data[].attributes.body
Love that the presentation included strengths and interest in profile of student. It is important because it helps to identify what the student can do and it is possible for the student to use his strengths/interests for the areas he is weaker in.

The presentation gave clear examples of work samples. The lesson schedule helps to see the overview of the lesson and WOW!! they included video modelling! Really so much effort and well done!

# data[].attributes.body
1. Presentation slides look great. It's very clear, simple and creative.

2. I liked how they backed their Interventions with research-backed data. Excellent!

3. I liked the way they differentiated the sounds of each of the vowel teams so that the student can know the difference.

# data[].attributes.body
Well done Group 1! :-)

I really liked the range of activities. It sounds really fun! As a child, I would definitely feel engaged.

I really liked how within the "I do, We do, You do" stages, there are opportunities for both reading and spelling.

clear explanation of "I do" "you do" and "we do"

provided a good amount of examples per session

very detailed information

# data[].attributes.body
I liked how the assessments were well thought through.

I liked how an online game is being used in the lesson. It makes the lesson more engaging.

Lessons are customizable and interactive.

There's reinforcement on previous sessions.

# data[].attributes.body
1. Tapping on the student’s strength (visual & kinaesthetic learner) across the sessions were prominent - use personal experience and tasks that tap on her learning style and are very interactive (picture cards, scavenger hunt)

2. Sequence is good, when and what is easiest, how is difficult

3. Mindmap encapsulating everything - as a visual learner myself, it does improve my understanding

4. Certification looks very rewarding for a child who loves Pokemon

# data[].attributes.body
1. I like the child-friendly schedule

2. Videos and work samples were clearly illustrated. Many visuals to aid understanding. Good job with the demonstration

- I liked how clear the presentation slides were as it allowed me to follow through better, as well as the use of evidence-based interventions.

- I liked how the resources used are diverse, age appropriate, creative and targeted at the needs of the student! This way, I am certain that the student will be more motivated during the sessions.

Great job Group 1!

# data[].attributes.body
Positives:

Multiple assessment methods: DIBELS, Schonell, Phonics test

Well scaffolded intervention sessions that are fun and engaging (vowel team bottle cap, online games, word slider, flashcards)

When using worksheets, student’s motivation was considered and hence worksheets were prepared with visuals to cater to learner’s needs

Detailed planning of all intervention sessions

# data[].attributes.body
1. Used standardised testing (DIBELS) for assessment

2. Gamification of lessons (e.g. sorting game, bottle cap, online games, word slider)

3. I like the session header at the top of the slide, it forms as a clear schedule for the teacher you are presenting to keep track

# data[].attributes.body
Good job Group 1!!

Positives:

Breakdown of the different spelling rules into smaller portions and incorporating fun

Love the variation in the activities - bottle cap activity, online game, worksheets, hangman game, word slider; different modes of teaching and practices used

Good scaffolding of the spelling process and applying the use of it into sentences

# data[].attributes.body
Slides were well made and detailed with visuals to show clear and structured thought on the interventions to be used with the student. (Visual of the story mountain to represent what the session objective is was great)

The way the presentation took the point of view of presenting to the teacher which also let me see how the clarity of the approach would encourage the teachers to buy-in as well as give the teacher a clear idea on what is going on during the pull-out sessions with the child.

# data[].attributes.body
1. I really like that the sessions were being framed as fun activities that appeals to the student's interest. Will certainly motivate the student to participate and put in best effort.

2. I really like that the student's learning profile (repetition as a way to deepen understanding) to support his learning.

3. I really like that his interest with animals are being used in the activities, will certainly capture his attention to motivate him to learn

4. I really like the plan in generalizing the skills

5. Really like that student was given a choice with the topic to work with .

# data[].attributes.body
Great job Group 1!

Love how thorough the assessment is to identify the child's developmental stage. Good that they included the short term and long term goals. They also ensured that the lesson taught is related to teacher's teaching in the classroom.

I like how there are different activities used since child is reluctant to attend the withdrawal sessions. The use of interesting games like word slider and game site is really nice!

With the help of visuals such as the visual cards and flashcards, the goal of the sessions which is to make the lessons interesting is met.

Love the slides as usual!

# data[].attributes.body
Good tapping into the student's strengths. I could see the great effort placed into making a Pokemon themed lesson for all 5 sessions.

A lot of thought was placed when choosing the strategies to match the students learning needs. The student was a visual learner so strategies like the word wall was used to better aid in the students learning.

The use of token economy as a motivating factor was great as many a times we need the buy in of the student as well to our pull-out sessions.

# data[].attributes.body
They clearly spoke about the student's deficiency in phonics and how it affects spelling. They used assessments that are very familiar to us.

They used long term and short-term goals. To achieve success.

They had a word list and worked on the list so that the child is focused, and basic understanding is achieved for spelling. Gradually they increased the list. They did not overwhelm the student.

They also adopted play-based approach for the teaching.

# data[].attributes.body
I like the usage of video to clearly illustrate how the teaching looks like

I like that there is a consistent theme throughout the whole lesson, targeting student's interest

I also like a more student-centric way of writing schedules so as to not pressure the student too much with words like "tests".

Checking in on student's understanding of the lesson is also a good way for us to evaluate the lesson from the student's point of view.

# data[].attributes.body
1. I think the team was very thorough in establishing baseline before the start of the intervention, using the various tests and getting feedback from teacher.

2. I really like the identification of short-term and long-term goals

3. I think the team laid out a very good plan with progressing of the session, clearly building up the student's skills as the session progresses.

4. Very good use of visuals and games to motivate and support learning.

# data[].attributes.body
I like the theme of the sessions which is all working around the child's interests of nature and animals.

The gamification of the schedule is great in helping increasing the student's motivation during the session itself.

The video of the session also shows clearly how the session would be carried out.

# data[].attributes.body
Bravo Group 1 - detailed & well-explained in a nutshell

1. Clear rationale for chosen topics - ie vs ei, ay vs ai

2. Fun engaging games

3. Clear I do, we- do and you do concept; engaging strategies- Spelling challenge : Word Slider that is customisable;

4. Generalisation and maintenace are included .

# data[].attributes.body
I like the usage of an overall theme to engage the student. Sometimes students may dread withdrawal sessions but using this method will allow student to look forward to the sessions with the SEN officer!!

Throughout the sessions, there were many fun aspects that tapped onto her needs as a visual and kinaesthetic learner. I learnt about different and fun strategies to use such as comic strips and storytelling cards.

Loved the overall presentation, friends!

# data[].attributes.body
The schedule was so interesting as it was gamified to cater to the student. I can tell that the team also cared about the wellbeing of the student as they also included a survey to check on the readiness of the student towards the topic taught.

The videos used help me to understand the activities to be carried out with the student better! I enjoyed watching them and can visualise how I should do it as a SEN officer.

Superb effort, friends!!!

# data[].attributes.body
Good job Group 4!! :)

Positives (What I liked):

-Includes a wide range of assessment tools. e.g., Use of Bloom’s Taxonomy assessment was well explained.

-The strategy of story mountain was used throughout all the sessions. With consistent use, it reinforces student's memory on application of the strategy + hone their skill of using it.

-There was emphasis on constant collaboration with SENO and teacher.

# data[].attributes.body
1. Video modelling with clear lesson objectives

2. Easy-to-understand Schedule is used

3. Thematic based strategies were used, tapping on student's interests and understanding his profile

4. Gamification to engage student to make learning fun and enjoyable. That would definitely encourage and motivate any student in participating in withdrawal sessions willingly. That in turn will increase probability in achieving intervention goal (s).

Thank you Group 2 for an enriching presentation.
