Action Research Plan

Valarie will you be comparing Pre-k to first grade, all grades or should you try to just focus on one grade? I think this type of research is very important especially in Texas. I taught at a school in Dallas that had bi-lingual teachers supposedly teaching the bi-lingual model, who did not speak English. I believe if there was more data to prove which model is best for teaching our Spanish speaking students English and prepares them for middle school, more districts might start making important changes.
ReplyDeleteThey are actually trying to implement a Gomez and Gomez model in our school beginning with Pre-K and K. I will use 1st grade for the comparison of no dual language implementation and maybe follow them to compare with students in kinder this year to observe a difference.
DeleteYour action research sounds interesting. I am curious about some things though. How often is the TPRI and TEJEA LEE given? These tests were only given three times during the school year. Beginning, middle and end and used to show data as to how the students progressed.
ReplyDeleteAlso, is the Pre-K and Kindergarten an all day program or half day?
If half day are you going to choose morning or afternoon students?
I think your action research is a good idea.
