This section is SUMMER only. Our first session will begin with an initials assessment to help customize a tutoring plan specific for your learner. Depending on that assessment, we will focus on one of two areas: Phonics Instruction: - A direct, systematic, multisensory approach will be used to help your learner develop the strategies and skills needed to read. - Learners will learn to crack the reading code so when they come to a word they do not know, they can break it apart to read it. - They will gain confidence in their reading ability because they have the skills and knowledge on how to read unknown words. Reading Comprehension: - We will use grade level appropriate reading passages to help learners develop reading comprehension skills. - Learners will be taught how to find key words in questions and skim text to find the answers. - Learners will develop skills to help with understanding of what is being asked in the question.
Learning Goals
Learners will:
- Build confidence as a reader
- Develop skills that will increase their reading understanding and ability
- Be able to decode and read unknown words easily
