Class Experience

US Grade 1 - 3
Beginner Level
Reading for Meaning is an 8-week course offered 2 times a week to help students who struggle in reading to gain confidence. This is a face-to-face class where learners are expected to participate. It is also understood that students with special needs can be mildly disruptive in group sessions and will have work avoidance for nonpreferred tasks. I will strive to keep them engaged and interacting. This class is intensive fact finding and utilizes drill format every other lesson for building rapid comprehension skills.

Learning Goals

Students should be able to identify key information in a short paragraph and demonstrate comprehension of the passage. Students should also increase their speed of comprehension as they move forward in the course.
