Answer to Question 1

Answer: Math presents special challenges in reading. A great deal of material in math texts is presented in numbers and mathematical symbols. Students need ample opportunities to translate numbers and symbols into words. The order of information presented in math texts also differs. Typically the details appear first, with the main idea presented last. Another difference is while students read math texts, they must attend to visual, verbal, and mathematical aspects. As students read math texts, they both comprehend and solve problems.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: Lesson plans should include a student's spelling stage (early phonetic, phonetic, structural, or meaning/derivational) and spelling assessment. Activities may include writing and editing, making words, building words, word walls, word sorts, word ladders, or onset and rime activities as appropriate.
