N2  - "Designed to serve teachers as a classroom handbook, Literacy Profiles: A Framework to Guide Assessment, Instructional Strategies and Interventions, K-4 serves as a practical tool to help you identify and evaluate the literacy strengths and weaknesses of each student in your classroom. The framework for the literacy profiles identifies ten critical areas of literacy learning and allows teachers to record the incremental steps individual students make as they become competent and confident readers and writers. Chapter content provides guidance for sharpening your instructional skills and scaffolding instruction based on both summative and formative assessment data. Literacy Profiles provides a valuable progress monitoring tool to tailor literacy learning to individual needs based on purposeful and appropriate assessment information. What will you find valuable in Literacy Profiles? A comprehensive framework that outlines ten strands pf literacy development and incremental learning goals for children in grades K-4 Assessment tools that measure not only what students can do but what can they "almost do" to better link assessment with instruction Teaching and learning guidance tied to Cambourne's conditions of learning and social/interactive engagement based on Vgotsky's zone of proximal development Artifacts and assessment data collected from Willa, an actual second grade student, which offer authentic methodology for using he literacy profile with children".
