Ready to up your reading game? Already comfortable with short reading passages and ready for more? This class is for you! Each week we will learn new vocabulary words and discover how to use them. We will also read a passage together  each week to support vocabulary and deciphering the meaning of new words. 

In each class, students will start with a vocabulary study of five new words. We will work together with new words to determine their meanings . Then, we will practice the new vocabulary with fun games and reading together. Students will interact with their classmates as they play games to review the class lesson and complete reading comprehension practice.
