Reviewed when our CWG is going to CORE Next phonic lessons- short and long vowels looked at using different fonts
 * Prior Session:**

Review our PSF three week assessments Look for patterns in our student data Where do we go from here?
 * Today's Purpose:**

NOTES: > We also noticed that working on segmenting words has helped with writing.
 * Kia shared her record keeping for PSF to keep it simple and easier to read.
 * The end of year goal for PSF is 52.
 * 52+ benchmark
 * 44-51 strategic
 * 0-43 intensive
 * A pattern we noticed is that students are blending plural endings.
 * Strategies for segmenting plural words.
 * practice segmentation during guided reading and use books that focus on plurals so students can start hearing the ending sounds.
 * Hunt for s words and write them on stickies, practice segmenting
 * Write the words on chart paper and write the segments out. Have students point at each phoneme and say each sound.
 * Incorporate this into a center or read around the room.
 * Phonics - after the lesson on vowels next week, move to plural endings.
 * April 29 is the end of the current Literacy unit

Writing
 * Carrie has used a story map to begin her story. She has modeled and modeled, but some are still struggling. Using Differentiated instruction for those students, she is using the 3 picture prompt.
 * Jenny is using the three picture prompt to teach beginning, middle, and end. She is meeting with 3 or 4 kids per day to revise.

Bring our phonic book to look for plural lessons. Review our notes on Erin's videos. Review the Math Language rubric/Chris will attend our meeting
 * Future Session**
