Welcome to Read 180! This course is a year long accelerated reading course using a blended model of learning. This means that students will have tailored instruction based on their needs using an online program, face-to-face classroom learning within a small group AND have an extensive library of books to choose from. Students will also be given a REAL Book which is used to practice lessons that will prepare them for the academic language and reading that will be required in High School and College.
In this course, students will have a whole class lesson, followed by rotations in a) Read 180 Computer Adaptive Lessons b) Independent Reading Time c) Small Group Instruction with Teacher GRADING Grades in this course are based on the completion of lessons (online, small group and whole group) and on the independent reading of students. Grades are based on both effort and academic achievement. STUDENT MONITORING Once students have taken the placement test, I will explain the results with your child as well as send home an overview of your child’s reading level. Every 2-3 weeks, I will be monitoring their progress and will keep you informed as to how they are doing in the class. |
