This chapter describes a lesson designed for young band students learning to read whole, half, and quarter notes. The lesson can also work for older students using more complicated rhythms. It works well with groups of five to ten students so that everyone can get a chance to make a rhythm on the SMART Board. In this activity students compose and perform short rhythmic compositions. Using quarter notes, half notes, and whole notes (or whatever suits your learning objectives), students create rhythms that correspond to a given time signature. Students then perform the rhythms by clapping, or with instruments.

In general, each student has different abilities, characteristics, characteristics, and even behavior, this has become sunnatullah so that between them there are advantages and disadvantages, with differences and diversity of abilities there must be differences in academic and non-academic fields, including in terms of interests and skills. In learning Islamic Religious Education, there is one indicator and learning goal that must be achieved by students, which must be able to read verses or suras in the Qur'an properly and correctly. able or less able in terms of reading the Qur'an properly and correctly. To overcome this, there must be appropriate and fast steps that will be taken by the author so that students can be enthusiastic and motivated in participating in learning, especially learning to read the suras in the Qur'an, so that learning objectives can be achieved properly. The first step to be taken is to make improvements to the Learning Implementation Plan (RPP) through the implementation of lesson study activities. In Lesson Study activities. There are three stages that are carried out, namely the PLAN stage (planning), DO stage (implementing), and the SEE stage (reflection), these three stages are carried out simultaneously in 1 cycle, and are carried out continuously. Lesson Study is an effective way to improve the learning process, which can improve student learning outcomes. ABSTRAKPada umumnya setiap peserta didik memiliki kemampuan, karakteristik, ciri, bahkan tingkah laku yang berbeda,hal ini sudah menjadi sunnatullah sehingga diantara mereka terdapat kelebihan dan kekurangan, dengan adanya perbedaan dan keragaman kemampuan pasti ada perbedaan di bidang akademik dan non akademik, termasuk dalam hal minat dan keterampilan. Dalam pembelajaran Pendidikan Agama Islam, ada salah satu indicator dan tujuan pembelajaran yang harus di capai oleh peserta didik untuk bisa membaca ayat-ayat al Qur’an dengan baik dan benar. Berdasarkan pengamatan, diantara peserta didik masih ada yang tidak bisa atau kurang mampu dalam hal membaca Al Qur’an dengan baik dan benar. Untuk mengatasi hal itu, harus ada langkah tepat dan cepat yang akan di lalukan oleh penulis agar peserta didik bisa semangat dan termotivasi dalam mengikuti pembelajaran, khususnya belajar membaca ayat –ayat Al Qur’an, sehingga tujuan pembelajaran dapat tercapai dengan baik. Langkah pertama yang akan di lakukan yaitu mengadakan perbaikan pada Rencana Pelaksanaan Pembelajaran( RPP) melalui penerapan kegiatan lesson Study. Dalam kegiatan Lesson Study ada tiga tahap yang akan di lakukan, yaitu tahap PLAN (merencanakan), tahap DO (melaksanakan), dan tahap SEE (refleksi), ke tiga tahap ini di lakukan sekaligus dalam 1 siklus, dan di laksanakan secara berkelanjutan. Lesson Study merupakan salah satu cara yang efektif untuk memperbaiki proses pembelajaran yang bisa meningkatkan hasil belajar peserta didik.

ABSTRACTPhonological awareness is thought to be related to children's success in learning to read because it indicates an awareness of the internal structure of words. Morphological awareness, which has been found to be related to reading achievement for older students, may offer a more comprehensive measure of linguistic sensitivity because it entails not only phonological awareness, but also other aspects of linguistic knowledge. The research study reported herein was designed to investigate the extent to which phonological awareness contributes to the morphological awareness of first graders and to determine the extent to which phonological and morphological awareness account for variance in word reading. Two tasks of morphological awareness were used, one assessing judgments of morphological relations and the other assessing the production of inflected and derived forms.

Abstract Determining how best to address young children's African American English use in formal literacy assessment and instruction is a challenge. Evidence is not yet available to discern which theory best accounts for the relation between AAE use and literacy skills or to delineate which dialect-informed educational practices are most effective for children in preschool and the primary grades. Nonetheless, consistent observations of an educationally significant relation between AAE use and various early literacy skills suggest that dialect variation should be considered in assessment and instruction practices involving children who are learning to read and write. The speech-language pathologist can play a critical role in instituting such practices in schools.

Abstract. In Germany, 7.5 Million individuals between 18 and 64 years are considered to be functionally illiterate (Grotlüschen & Riekmann, 2012). Functional illiterates have only rudimentary literacy skills despite attending school for several years. Although they can use written language to a very limited extent, only few functional illiterates attend literacy courses for adults. In addition, most adult literacy courses primarily aim at promoting basic reading and writing skills. Offers specific to workplace literacy are scarce. This review gives an overview of the definition of functional illiteracy. Afterwards, a specific literacy program (AlphaPlus) and its effectiveness will be presented. The reviewed studies indicate that learning to read in adulthood is associated with structural and functional brain changes.

This study introduces the Schoolwork Engagement Inventory (EDA), which measures energy, dedication, and absorption with respect to schoolwork. Structural equation modeling was used to assess the validity and reliability of the inventory among students attending postcomprehensive schools. A total of 1,530 (769 girls, 761 boys) students from 13 institutions (six upper-secondary and seven vocational schools) completed the EDA 1 year apart. The results showed that a one-factor solution had the most reliability and fitted best among the younger students, whereas a three-factor solution was most reliable and fit best among the older students. In terms of concurrent validity, depressive symptoms and school burnout were inversely related, and self-esteem and academic achievement were positively associated with EDA. Boys and upper-secondary-school students experienced lower levels of schoolwork engagement than girls and vocational-school students.
