My Project

At our school, we strive to utilize materials that are strategic, authentic, and engaging for our students. As the Reading Specialist, it is my job to coach our tutors of students with low benchmark scores. These tutors work with students daily to improve phonemic awareness and stive for systematic and explicit instruction. Providing these tutors with prizes that motivate learning and good behavior, allows for all students to succeed. These tutors are working on maintaining positive behaviors with these students who strive for motivation.

Providing these tutors with motivational tools for students, can bring joy and learning to our students.

Utilizing the Echo Show would be a great opportunity for small groups to have something like an iPad/computer in front of them to watch read alouds, and quick videos. These resources bring joy, and allow students the opportunity to reach their full potential.
