Our students continue to work on improving all aspects of reading skills in our classes. It is important to note that our classes are in addition to the regular communication arts class and that we provide the students with supplemental instruction. This lets us tailor the material we use to the students’ individual reading levels and to target specific areas for instruction. Also, we can provide periods of reading practice.
The importance of daily reading practice in helping kids who are behind in reading is supported by research. For various reasons, kids sometimes fall behind in reading. The absolute best way for them to “Spring Forward” with their reading levels is to have structured practice. Reading aloud to improve rate, expression, and accuracy is something that has been proven to work to help catch kids up. Try to listen to your child read several times a week. Ask them questions about what they read. The key is to keep them reading!
Our 3rd Family Night is set for March 31. Plan to join us for dinner and reading games!
