Early Behaviors
Early Language and Literacy Certificate Program
Foundational Ideas: Early Behaviors
OEarly reading & writing behaviors are ESSENTIAL UNDERSTANDINGS on which to build literacy
Foundational Ideas: Early Behaviors
OMany struggling readers are confused about the early behaviors
OBy the time they figure them out, other children have moved on
Foundational Ideas: Early Behaviors
OBe sure that readers at all times can see the print on charts/easels (in word study lessons, interactive writing, and shared reading)
OSitting off to the side or directly in front gives a distorted view.
Foundational Ideas: Early Behaviors
O What does readiness mean?O Readiness was = fixed developmental phaseO Readiness NOW = Emerging O Emerging = growth is shaped by experiences
& opportunities that we create for children to engage with print (Vygotsky)
O “No matter where children are, they are always ‘ready’ to learn the next thing.” (Clay)
Foundational Ideas: Early Behaviors
OThe Early Behaviors MUST quickly become smooth and automatic so they do not require conscious attention
OTable talk: What are the ‘Big 5’ Early Behaviors?
Foundational Ideas: Early Behaviors
O The BIG 5 (model w/ We Dress Up)O Left to right, one to one matchO Locate known word (name, mom)O Locate unknown wordO Letter vs. wordO Learn how to remember

Foundational Ideas: Early Behaviors
O Academic Language O wordO letterO first, last, beginning, endO period, quotation marksO matchO makes sense
Making the “Invisible” Visible
O These understandings are “Invisible” to proficient readers like us, so we may not think to teach them
O We need to MAKE these understandings visible to emergent readers
O Handout: Making the “Invisible” VisibleO Circle three “ah-has”O Share at your table
So how do we see the “Invisible”?

Running Records
Early Language and Literacy Certificate Program
Foundational Understandings
OTeach for STRATEGYOWhat does that mean to
you?
ORequires analysis of running records
Foundational Understandings
OWe are analyzing the errors to see what’s good about them.
OErrors tell us what the child knows.
MSV AnalysisO Meaning = content
O Is the student’s response in the ballpark of the meaning of the piece up to the point of error?
O Saturday Sunday
O [The PICTURE informs MEANING. If a student looks at the picture when problem solving, he is using meaning (not visual information).]
MSV AnalysisO Structure = grammar, language
O Could the sentence have worked that way grammatically in book language up to the point of the error?
O The dog can swim. The dog can run.
O [This has nothing to do with the meaning.]
MSV AnalysisO Visual information = print
O 1:1 match, known wordsO Is there any similarity between the
student’s response and the look of the word?
O little house bottle hungry
O [This has nothing to do with the meaning/picture.]
