PEE paragraph CLA.

Throughout both texts Nilem gives Tom and Tania the word they are struggling to read. 'T: NO WAY (.) shouted Ross (.) ag- N: Again.' Having Nilem quickly give Tom the adverb 'again' might not help scaffold Tom's reading as instead of guiding him out of his ZPD he has just given him the adverb. Nilem could have done this so that Tom can keep the track of the meaning of the sentence and as a result be more keen to carry on reading as he isn't having to stop and start all the time and might enjoy the story more because he understands it. Nilem could have helped scaffold Tom's reading by using CDS and perhaps getting Tom to echo the sentence back to Nilem with the adverb 'again' which may help him put the word into context and could help scaffold him to be able to read the word by himself in the future.

  1. Good integration of the three AOs. Try and make the point more analytical e.g. Nilem facilitates the children's fluent reading by anticipating and preventing miscues by offering the model pronunciation when they pause mid-way through a word.
