Graph of Student Analysis

The names within each category are in no specific order. I have categorized my students performance levels into the following three categories: High, Medium, and Low. I used my showcase lesson to depict the highest, lowest, and medium performing student in the whole class and the reasons why I choose those specific students.

High Performing Students

1. Claudia Jensen 2. Mario Baltazar 3. Cami Lee Isbell 4. KeMond Brown 5. Keith Carrington 6. Ayla Morgan 7. Julia Yarochowiecz 8. Jaden Simpkins

Middle Performing Students

1. Evelyn Hernandez 2. Brayden Blair 3. Evan Avery 4. Logan Day 5. Caleb Hughes 6. Roxanna PinedaRivera 7. RJ Watson

Low Performing Students

Summary of Student Analysis

High Academically Performing Student: Claudia
Claudia was my high academically performing student in this clinical experience. Claudia is a Gifted and Talented student along with being very intelligent and mature for her age. Claudia does not usually finish assignments first because she takes her time and analyzes each part of her work while going back at the end and tracing her steps to make sure she did everything the way it was supposed to be done. She was very specific with all of her activities and with her writing. Claudia had very few mistakes in her writing and when she read to me, she knew when she had made a mishap and would reread the sentence the correct way. You may have some students who over analyze situations or do not analyze them enough but this child did just the right things. She always had her hand raised to answer any question you would ask and always had the right answer that seemed to be more elaborate than others.

Middle Academically Performing Student: Evelyn

Evelyn is a smart child but having her first language being Spanish did not help her much in class. She went to speech every day during our Reading and Writing time. Evelyn would not talk in class whether it is to another peer, to the teacher, or to me. She would only nod her head and that was it. I feel like this stumped her learning because if she had a question about something, she would not ask questions. Instead she just continued throughout the day with unanswered questions and confusion in different areas. I feel as though if she would have been more opened and talked to us then she would have performed very well in class and on assignments because she seemed to be very intelligent. She could talk English but just choose not to speak at school at all. I do know that the speech teacher had her talking and reading in her sessions with her but she would not speak in class.

Low Academically Performing Student: Noah

Noah is my quiet child. He did not talk much at all unless you went to him and asked him questions and even then he never seemed to have answers for you. He would just

sit and look at you and shrug his shoulders. I found that this was not just with me and while I taught. The other day I was sitting in a rocking chair near Noah after Mrs. Andrews had given an assignment to all of the students and I observed Noahs actions. He was just sitting there playing with his pencil and not doing anything with the activity they were supposed to be doing. I said his name to get his attention and asked him what he was supposed to be doing and he just looked at the activity and said, This thing. I said, Noah why arent you doing it? and his response was, I dont know. After talking to Mrs. Andrews, she said he does that with almost all of his work and he barely gets things fully completed. I asked her if when he does complete things are they accurate and her response was that most of the time they are readable and you can interpret what he means after answering a question, but he has a hard time comprehending instructions and information. I have noticed that he would only complete my assignments half-way when I gave them during my lessons, but the parts he would complete were done mostly correctly, just very sloppy. He never answered questions when asked during an interactive read-aloud and when he is called on randomly, he does the shrugging shoulders motion like he does not know. I personally think he just has difficulty paying attention because he seems to venture off into his own thinking and his own world during lessons.
