Learning Activity: Student Portfolio Assignment
Grade Level: Pre-K/Kindergarten

Date
Grade level and subject:
Pre-K/Kindergarten
Educational purpose of portfolio:
The main objective was to promote the learning of reading comprehension in Pre K/Kindergarten learners, through learning the alphabet and early writing practice, where the children are expected to write the entire alphabet in lowercase letters. The children recognize letters from a set of graphic elements and this is the starting point for writing (Ansari & Winsler, 2016). As such, the learners should be able to recognize the English alphabet, letter by letter.
Written directions provided for your students:
Printed pages of the activity/ poster and a pencil are required materials
Read the statement of each activity to the child.
* First is to highlight that the alphabet is the set of symbols (letters) that are used to write a language and each letter corresponds to a sound (phoneme).
* The words are read out aloud pointing at each letter, and the children learn writing them using the lowercase.
* Ask the child to write the vowels and consonants
* Ask the child the find missing letters in an exercise meant for correction
* After completing the worksheet, ask the learners to self evaluate their performance to determine their understanding and what needs to change
Categories and specific items students are to include in their portfolio:
For each individual
* There are 26 letters of the alphabet in the English language where there is a representation in the upper and lower case.
* The children indicate the 26 letters that are divided into 5 vowels and 21 consonants, each with its own sound.
* Improvement sound and letter recognition indicates progress in alphabet knowledge (Stanley & Finch 2018).
* There are also able to identify sounds formed by the union of two letters.
For the group
* The class is divided into groups and there are given posters where the alphabet words are in disorder and that the challenge for each group will be to place each word next to its corresponding image.
* Several sets of words are printed and the letter that is in each word is a different color, which helps the children to recognize the letters faster.
* As a correction or to finish the activity, the children are asked which of the letters of the alphabet are emphasized in certain words.
Letters are in the correct order
* Another good exercise to better understand the alphabet in the pre-k/ kindergarten class is using correction as a learning tool.
* The idea is to include the letters on the poster in lowercase but put them in the incorrect order and let them correct the letters.
* Using gestures and expressions this will motivate them to make correction what is in the wrong order.
* This exercise requires that they first understand the alphabet and is more successful if they can pronounce the letters in the correct order and read them aloud.
