  1. Daily Oral Language A Strategy for Mastering COS, SAT-10, and AHSGE Content

  2. Daily Oral Language Lessons: • Daily • Work well as bell-ringers • Aligned with COS, SAT-10, AHSGE Item Specifications • Focus on • Grammar • Punctuation • Capitalization • Mechanics • Usage

  3. Procedures (example) • Sentences on board or overhead when students enter • Students correct errors • Share revisions • Check for understanding • Give direct instruction if needed

  4. Suggestions: • Set a specific time • Establish routine procedures • Use a timer • Give clear and immediate feedback • Hold students accountable

  5. Accountability: Key to Success • Students write the DOLs • In a notebook • On a DOL form* • Teacher checks DOLS at end of each week (or two weeks). • Weekly or bi-weekly quiz reflects DOL content • Expect student writing to reflect DOL content!

  6. Any Questions about Daily Oral Language? • Where do I get my DOLs? • Textbooks • Online grammar sites • DOL workbooks • Student writing (unfortunately, a wonderful source of errors!) Remember: Align DOL with content to be tested.

  7. By the way: Is governor Riley in the capital buiding. • Use a variety of errors • Recycle errors to keep students “on their toes” • Get feedback in various ways. Students: • make corrections on overhead • write answers on board • write on individual dry erase boards

  8. Keeping it fun • Try using student names in the error samples • Allow students to submit samples • Use humorous sentences or interest-grabbing topics • Use newspaper “errors” • Build a non-threatening environment for sharing answers

  9. A DOL “Sample” Students enter class and see this on the board. DOL #1 • My daughter a student at samford university can talk to anyone she never meets a stranger.

  10. DOL #1 • Students write the sentence in their notebooks. • Volunteers come one at a time and make a correction. • There may be more than one way to make corrections. • Discuss reasons/rules.

  11. My daughter a student at samford university can talk to anyone she never meets a stranger. Comma use: appositive Capitalization: name of a specific university Run-on sentence Make two sentences (separate with a period) Separate two closely related sentences with a semi-colon. Etc. One sentence. . . 3 mini-lessons!

  12. Final Answer • Several “correct” answers are possible • Students should be able to defend their answers. • My daughter, a student at Samford University, can talk to anyone. She never meets a stranger!
