My high school students, aka mentors, have selected younger students who are struggling readers. They will meet with them weekly to read. Initially the mentor will read the material, followed by the elementary student reading along. The goal is that each week the elementary student will enhance their reading skill to take home the select reading material to show their developing skill. The Ziplock bags are needed to hold all the reading supplies. Through the design studio the mentor will create incentives to give to their mentee. This incentive could be a bookmark, or shape that is important to the mentee. Hopping this positive reinforcement will encourage the mentee to continue to read and grow in their skill of reading. All mentees are at least a half grade level behind but most are over an entire grade level behind.
