Reading Analysis
Sally is at the intermediate fluency level in her English language learning. She is proficient in reading competencies. For example, she reads from left to right, uses her finger to read aloud, uses context clues, self corrects, and has a sense of reading intonation. Similar to her writing sample, she tends to run on with the sentences rather taking a pause between punctuation marks. We noticed that she is also having trouble in pronouncing the ‘th’ sound in words and substitutes these sounds for the ‘d’ sound. We think that she is reading mentally faster than she is speaking, which causes her to sometimes repeat words and then correct them. According to Fry’s Readability Test, the books that she selected were estimated to be at a first grade reading level.
