EDUC 450: PROFESSIONAL CLINICAL PRACTICE

LONG RANGE PLAN -- EARLY CHILDHOOD & ELEMENTARY

Candidate: Joy Pollock


District: Orangeburg Consolidated District 5
Major: Early Childhood Education

Cooperating Teacher: Mrs. Ihekweazu


School: Whittaker Elementary school
Cognate(s): Social Studies

Grade: 2
Year: Spring 2016

Section I: Student Information


Describe the student information that you feel will have the most impact on the way you plan and deliver instruction.
Important Student Information
Factors
(e.g. gender, SES, reading levels,
disabilities, ethnicity, student
interests, and other relevant
factors, etc.)

Gender

Description
(of your findings in terms of your
students)

In Mrs. Iheweakzus class, there are


thirteen boys and eight girls.
Researchers have found that
females are generally more
extroverted, anxious, and trusting;
are less assertive; and have slightly
lower self esteem than males of the
same age and background. Females
verbal and motor skills tend to
develop faster than those of males.
(Berk, 2012, 2014; Sadker &Silber,
2007)
All of the students in the class are of
African American descent.

Race of Students
Students with Disabilities

Students Reading Level

Student Interests

There are three students in the class


with disabilities.

There are six students in this class


who are reading below second grade
reading level. The rest of the
students are at least on a second
grade reading level and higher.
After handing out a student interest
inventory sheet, I determined that
the boys favorite sports were football
and basketball. The boys favorite
team was the Carolina Panthers.
Next, I found out that most boys
enjoy playing with their Xbox 360 or
other video games. Most of the girls
said they enjoyed playing Uno and
board games like Sorry. They enjoy
watching television more than video
games. The girls also like to dance
and have girl talk with their friends.

Revised Fall 2013 ACEI/NAEYC 2010 Standards

Sources/Contextual Factors
(e.g. students, community resources, internet,
records, school personnel, family, etc.)

This information was gathered through classroom


observation and looking at the class roster.

I gathered this information from observing the


students and conversations with my mentor
teacher.
Observation of students, conversations with my
mentor teacher and the resource teacher, talking
with parents of children at parent teacher
conferences, student records, and student IEPs.
The information was given from my mentor teacher,
which she received through school records on the
internet.

This information was obtained by giving students


an interest inventory seat and actual conversations
with children.

Reflect on the student Information: Why do you feel that this student information is of primary importance, and (2) how did
and will you use this student information to guide the development of your long and short range plans?

The students I work with are all unique and special in their own way. Since my students are all at different reading levels, I
am going to provide multiple means of instruction and assessments for my students in the reading content area. I will
incorporate multiple types of intelligences when planning lessons and activities for students to do. It is important that this
is done, because all children learn differently so teaching only a few learning styles is not beneficial to all. The above
student data is especially significant, because I have to accommodate my learners with disabilities. Instruction needs to
be explicit and clear for them, as well as planning appropriate accommodations for these students. Understanding
students likes and dislikes will help me to relate content material to what I plan to teach. Seeing their favorite television
character or sports player on a worksheet or PowerPoint in Math may engage the child more. I will plan for my lessons to
be rigorous, physical, and fun. Since most of my students enjoy physical activity and sports, I will incorporate some forms
of kinesthetic in my lesson. While I have thirteen boys and eight girls in the classroom, I will ensure that I incorporate
interests of both boys and girls, instead of being bias to boys because there are more. I will make sure that girls take an
active role in math and science classes, especially given boys tendency to be more assertive in such settings. Although I
want to incorporate as much fun as possible, I will ensure lesson content is rigorous and challenging. My goal is to
incorporate all learning styles and intelligences when planning my lessons to meet the needs of all my students.
Section II: Long Range Learning and/or Developmental Goals
Describe the long range learning/developmental goals (standards) that you have established for your students in each of the
four content areas. Make sure that you include goals that address the cognitive, psychomotor and affective domains and
diversity for students.

Subject: English Language Arts

Long Range Learning and/or Developmental Goals three or four standards that you know you will use

Standard 13: Read independently and comprehend a variety of texts for the purposes of reading for enjoyment,
acquiring new learning, and building stamina; reflect and respond to increasingly complex text over time.
Standard 5: Determine meaning and develop logical interpretations by making predictions, inferring, drawing
conclusions, analyzing, synthesizing, providing evidence, and investigating multiple interpretations.

Standard 3: Construct knowledge, applying disciplinary concepts and tools, to build deeper understanding of
the world through exploration, collaboration, and analysis.

Standard 6: Write independently, legibly, and routinely for a variety of tasks,


purposes, and audiences over short and extended 5 time frames.
Standard 3: Know and apply grade-level phonics and word analysis skills when decoding words.

Reflect on the long range learning and/or developmental goals: Of the long range learning and/or developmental goals you
have established, which goals do you believe are the most important for all students to achieve, and why?

My ultimate goal for the students is to equip them with the knowledge they need to be proficient readers,
writers, and communicators. Having a solid foundation in reading, writing, and language arts is essential for
students to master in the early grades before moving on to testing grades. Students must use and integrate
Revised Fall 2013 ACEI/NAEYC 2010 Standards

reading, writing, and communication to become successful and proficient readers, writers, and communicators,
regardless of their grade level or course placement. These are skills that they will build upon for the rest of their
lives. Therefore, all of the above learning goals are important for all students to achieve. Using these standards
as a guideline to teach will help ensure that all my students achieve the long range learning goals of helping
them become proficient readers, writers, and communicators. As students use these processes with
automaticity, they will more successfully navigate new and more challenging content and tasks. My goal is for
students to take ownership of their learning through personal understanding and implementation of the
reading, writing, and communication processes and strategies.

Subject: Mathematics

Long Range Learning and/or Developmental Goals

2.ATO.1 Solve one- and two-step real-world/story problems using addition (as a joining action and as a partpart-whole action) and subtraction (as a separation action, finding parts of the whole, and as a comparison)
through 99 with unknowns in all positions.
2.MDA.1 Select and use appropriate tools (e.g., rulers, yardsticks, meter sticks, measuring tapes) to measure
the length of an object.

2.MDA.6 Use analog and digital clocks to tell and record time to the nearest five-minute interval using a.m. and
p.m.

2.NBST.1b Understand place value through 999 by demonstrating that the hundreds digit in a three- digit
number represents the number of hundreds, the tens digit represents the number of tens, and the ones digit
represents the number of ones.

Reflect on the long range learning and/or developmental goals: Of the long range learning and/or developmental goals you
have established, which goals do you believe are the most important for all students to achieve, and why?

Research about the African-American culture shows that students often value oral experiences, physical
activity, and loyalty in interpersonal relationships (Shade 1989, Hilliard 1989). These traits call for classroom
activities that include approaches like discussion, active projects, and collaborative work. When teaching not
only these standards, but math in general, I will use the conceptual approach to teaching mathematics. Rather
than emphasizing direct-instruction, memorization, drill, and practice, conceptual-based mathematics
instruction focuses on student discovery, use of manipulatives, problem solving, and use of technology as
teaching methodologies. I will incorporate as many manipulatives and hands on projects for the students as
possible. I will incorporate educational games, and videos with content material so that students can have fun
Revised Fall 2013 ACEI/NAEYC 2010 Standards

and be engaged when learning math. I want my students to be active learners, instead of active memorizers or
active listeners. I will ensure my students understand why they are learning what I am teaching by activating
prior knowledge and relating it to what they will learn in the future. Since research has shown that boys
generally outperform girls in math, I will ensure that both boys and girls exceed the average score on state and
standardized tests. In conclusion, I think all math standards listed are important because it gives the student a
solid foundation for more difficult concepts they will come across in later grades.

Subject: Science

Long Range Learning and/or Developmental Goals

2.S.1A.1 Ask and answer questions about the natural world using explorations, observations, or structured
investigations.
Standard 2.P.3: The student will demonstrate an understanding of the observable properties of solids and
liquids and the special properties of magnets.

Standard 2.P.4: The student will demonstrate an understanding of the effects of pushes, pulls, and friction on
the motion of objects.
2.L.5A. Conceptual Understanding: There are many different groups of animals. One way to group animals is by
using their physical characteristics. Animals have basic needs that provide for energy, growth, reproduction,
and protection. Animals have predictable characteristics at different stages of development.

Reflect on the long range learning and/or developmental goals: Of the long range learning and/or developmental goals you
have established, which goals do you believe are the most important for all students to achieve, and why?

I believe it is essential for students to achieve all of the science learning goals but I believe standard 2.S.1A.1
is the most important. Children are born into this world like little sponges, soaking up all this information the
world puts before them. I think it is important that student know to ask questions when they are curious or
eager to know. I want my students to be able to answer their own questions by using exploration, observations,
research, and structured investigations. By taking responsibility for their learning and constructing their own
knowledge through discovery and investigation, students are creating their own knowledge of content, instead
of somebody constructing the knowledge for them. With science, I want my students to be hands-on as much
as possible and active learners.

Subject: Social Studies

Long Range Learning and/or Developmental Goals

2-1.1 Identify on a map the location of places and geographic features of the local community (e.g., landforms,
bodies of water, parks) using the legend and the cardinal directions.
Standard 2-3: The student will demonstrate an understanding of the role of goods and services and supply and

Revised Fall 2013 ACEI/NAEYC 2010 Standards

demand in a community.
2-2.1 Identify the basic functions of government, including making and enforcing laws, protecting citizens, and
collecting taxes.
Standard 2-4: The student will demonstrate an understanding of cultural contributions made by people from the
various regions in the United States.

Reflect on the long range learning and/or developmental goals): Of the long range learning and/or developmental goals you
have established, which goals do you believe are the most important for all students to achieve, and why?

In my opinion, all of the standards listed will give students a good foundation for which they can build more
difficult social studies topics that they will encounter later. I will ensure that my students understand you have
to know the past to understand the present and change the future. Each persons world view is shaped by
individual experiences, as well as the experiences of the group to which he or she belongs. If we are ignorant
of the historical experiences of a variety of cultures, then we cannot hope to understand why people,
communities or nations behave the way they do or make the decisions they make. I want to educate my
students so that they become successful informed global citizens.

Reflect on student performance: (1) How did you determine that your major assessments are appropriate for evaluating
student progress and achievement, and (2) What did or will you do to help your students and their parents understand (a) the
evaluation criteria you have established for this class/subject as well as (b) the reports regarding the students overall
progress and achievement in the class/subject?
I determined these assessments were appropriate for evaluating student progress and achievement by observing how my mentor
teacher assesses the students. I also determined this information by observing students as they do their work throughout the day, as
well as grading and looking at past assessments from my students. By getting to know my students, I was able to better meet their
needs when it comes to assessing them. Since students have different preferences for learning, I try to incorporate multiple means of
assessment from kinesthetic to linguistic. Students are aware when their work will be graded, they also have all of their work for the
week graded and retuned to them every Friday. This is helpful to parents because they are able to keep a close track of students
progress and achievement. By ensuring that students and parents receive progress reports and graded work every Friday, everyone is
on one accord when it comes to a students progress.

Section IV B: Assessment of Student Performance


Describe your system for maintaining records of student progress and achievement for this subject. Also, discuss your
procedures for aggregating and displaying the data. Discuss how you will use the data to make instructional decisions.
A.

System for maintaining records of student progress and achievement:


Students work is graded as soon as it is done and kept in an alphabetical/numerical order. Once work has been graded,
students work is recorded in a gradebook and then PowerTeacher. PowerTeacher is a system that helps teachers maintain
student grades easily. It also has a parent portal where, parents can access grades. Orangeburg Consolidated District 5
requires teachers to record at least seven to ten grades per marking period.

B.

Procedures for aggregating and displaying data:


Data is compiled from programs such as the STAR (Reading and Math) Assessment; Power Teacher; MAP and the
Accelerated Reader program. An aggregated average for student grades will be provided to parents/guardians at the end of
every marking period/quarter. Student work will be displayed throughout the classroom, as well as the hallway for special

Revised Fall 2013 ACEI/NAEYC 2010 Standards

recognition or hard work. Charts are used on the class bulletin board that track student progress on weekly assessments in
Math, ELA, Social Studies, and Science. Data will be used to assist in monitoring the ongoing achievement of students.
C.

How will you use the data to make instructional decisions?


Data will be used to make instructional decisions such as reteaching a concept that students may not have understood well.
Data will always be reflected on and impact the way I will teach and assess students.

Section V: Classroom Management


Describe your expectations for student behavior during instruction and during non-instructional routines. Write your
description as you were explaining these expectations to your students and their parents. List the rules and consequences,
and your procedures for non-instructional activities.
EXPECTATIONS DURING INSTRUCTION

Classroom Behavior Expectations are as follows:


1. Follow directions the first time.
2. Raise your hand and wait for permission to speak.
3. Keep hands, feet, objects, and negative comments to yourself.

Reflect on classroom management: What are the most important considerations in managing the classroom to maximize
instructional time, and why do you believe them to be important?
One of the most important considerations for managing the classroom is making sure that procedures, rules, consequences, and
rewards are established and understood at the beginning of the year. Having procedures established and practiced cuts down on
disruptions and maximizes instruction times. If students know that they get 2 bathroom breaks a day, it will cut down on having students
to constantly stop instruction time to go to the bathroom. It also eliminates the monkey see, monkey do effect of when one kids ask,
and then everybody wants to ask to go to the bathroom. Having procedures for sharpening pencils, lining up, and finishing early really
maximizes instruction time and also gives the teacher time to reflect or get some extra work done. By establishing these procedures,
rules, and rewards at the beginning of the year, it gives students an opportunity to practice them and to get adjusted to them.

Section VI: Parent Communications


Describe your procedures for providing initial information about your goals and expectations for student learning, plans for
instruction and assessment, rules for student behavior to your parents and overall recommendations for involving your
parents with learning at home. How do you plan to periodically inform your parents about their childs learning and
behavioral progress in your class? Also, discuss you would involve your parents in home-based and school-based activities.

Procedures for providing initial information

Revised Fall 2013 ACEI/NAEYC 2010 Standards

My plan is to contact parents and students prior to open house to start the
connection early. Upon meeting parents at open house, I will give them a
welcome packet that includes the following: a welcome letter, an emergency
contact form, grade newsletter, medical/allergy form, student interest inventory
form, school information, and a classroom rules and procedures sheet. I will
communicate to parents and their children all of my expectations, routines, and
procedures for instruction, assessments, behavior, and parental support at the
beginning of the school year. I will stress to them that my number one goal is to
promote student learning, so that these students will become lifelong lovers of
learning. I will stress to achieve this goal I need for all of us ( teacher, parent, and
Procedures for involving parents with the learning at home
Section VII: Reflecting and Revision Procedures

Informing parents of my expectations of them and how I want them to be heavily


involved with their childs learning both in and out the classroom, will help get the
support the student needs to be successful. To involve parents at home I will use
apps such as ClassDojo. ClassDojo allows for parents to track their student
behavior throughout the day, as well as communicate with the teacher. The
teacher can post announcements, reminders, and pertinent information in the
class story and all parents and students can view it from their electronic device.
ClassDojo can be accessed by phone or computer, so if that family does not have
internet access at home, it can be accessed at a library. Parents can also send me
messages or reminders of doctors appointments. I will send home parent surveys
about how they would like to be involved with their childs learning. Parents will be
invited to all field trips and assemblies. I also will communicate with the parent
every week through progress reports about their students achievement
throughout the week. By implementing parent-assisted projects and parent
surveys, I hope to get a lot of parent support both in the classroom and at home.
Reflect on your long range plan and determine what might be, or what you think may be strengths and weakness. Decide
what modifications or adaptations might be needed to your plan. Decide how often you think you might need to reflect on
your teaching practices.

A.

Strengths: One of my strengths was my ability to obtain student information. I was able to pull student information
from multiple sources. Having multiple sources of information and researching my students helped me to find ways
to better meet their needs when instructing and planning for them.

B.

Weaknesses
I struggled with several areas in the long range plan such as the assessment of student performance and how much time will
be spent on each unit. One weakness in particular, was my ability to integrate the arts, health , and physical education with the
learning goals I chose. I struggled with this and I think with more planning and time, I could have integrated the arts, health,
and physical education better.

Revised Fall 2013 ACEI/NAEYC 2010 Standards

C.

Time line for evaluating long range plan components.


While creating a timeline for evaluating components of my long range plan, I plan to make the necessary accommodations as
it relates to student achievement weekly and monthly. If all students are successful within the given time frame of a unit, then
instruction will continue on as the pacing guide has set. If students experience more challenges than I anticipated, then
instruction will have to be monitored and adjusted for both the students who experience challenges and the students who
understand the material.

D.

List modifications and adaptations that you think might be needed to improve the procedures.
The length of time for learning material may need to be modified or updated to fit student progress. Students may need to
spend a longer amount of time on unit if they are having difficulty mastering it. Also the assessment practices will need to be
modified to better meet the needs of student and student progress.

E.

Plan for reflecting on your teaching practices.

My plan is to reflect daily on my teaching practices and student progress, while adjusting instruction when necessary. I will
uplift and encourage students to try their hardest and be the best they can be.
