Introduction to Daily Language Review

Why Daily Language Review?

The premise behind Daily Language Review is simple and straightforward—frequent, focused

practice of a skill leads to mastery and retention of that skill

What’s in Daily Language Review?

The book is divided into 36 weekly sections There are four

practice items for each day of the week

Monday through Thursday follow this format:

• sentences to edit—corrections need to be made in

punctuation, capitalization, spelling, and grammar

• items that practice a variety of language and reading

skills

Friday’s practice involves a single job practicing a variety of

skills, among them:

• writing and answering questions

An answer key for each week is provided on the same page

as the Friday lesson

Scope and sequence charts on pages 3 and 4 detail the

specific skills practiced and show in which weeks the practice

occurs The skills chosen have been selected from a variety

of language texts at this level

How to Use Daily Language Review

There are several ways that the daily review practices can be presented You may want to useall these presentations at times throughout the year to keep the practice fresh and interesting

1 Make overhead transparencies of the lessons Conduct the practice as an oral activitywith the entire class Write answers and make corrections using an erasable pen

Increased retention of the skills will occur if students mark the answers at the same time on

a reproduced sheet or on the blank answer form provided on the inside back cover As the

class becomes more familiar with Daily Language Review, you may want students to mark

their own answers first and then check responses by marking the items on the

transparency

2 Reproduce the pages for individuals or partners to work independently Check answers as

a group, using an overhead transparency to model the correct answers

Use these pages as independent practice only after much oral group experience with thelessons

3 Occasionally you may want to use the lesson from one day or even a week as a test to seehow individuals are progressing in their acquisition of skills

It should be stressed, however, that the greatest learning benefit will be gained from doingthe practices orally so that students continually hear correct responses modeled by theirclassmates and the teacher

Hints, Suggestions, and Options

1 Look ahead several weeks at the skills being practiced If possible, teach new skills informal lessons before asking students to practice these skills in the daily review

2 Sometimes you will not have taught a given skill before it appears in a lesson These itemsshould then be done together, not independently Tell the class that there is a skill theyhave not yet been taught See if anyone knows the answer and wishes to explain it to theclass If not, use the review time to conduct a mini-lesson on that skill

3 Customize the daily review lessons to the needs of your class

• If there are skills that are not included in the grade level expectancies of the particularprogram you teach, you may choose to skip those items—white them out or correct thembefore reproducing the page

• If you feel your class needs more practice than is provided, add these “extras” on yourown in the form of a one-item warm up, a mini-post test, or ask students to provide

another example
