This Activity Builds Upon The Proficiency Level Analysis Assignment Us This activity builds upon the proficiency level analysis assignment using the 7th-grade Mrs. Jensen’s class document. You will use the groups that you created in that topic for this assignment. Select a passage appropriate for seventh-grade students to utilize within this assignment. Create a 5-8 slide PowerPoint presentation that could be used to demonstrate vocabulary strategies to your colleagues. Your PowerPoint should include the following: Key vocabulary that you would pre-teach the students in Mrs. Jensen’s class; One strategy you would use to pre-teach this vocabulary to this group of students; and one strategy to practice this vocabulary later in the lesson. Additionally, include a reference slide with 3-5 references for using these strategies.
