Reading and Math Advantage Interventions
Meeting Scholars at Their Point of Need
However, not all scholars progress at the same pace, and may encounter challenges that hinder their learning. This is where academic interventions come into play, serving a crucial purpose in ensuring that every scholar has the opportunity to succeed.
By bridging the opportunity gap and instilling a growth mindset, academic interventions such as Reading & Math Advantage will lay the foundation for a bright and successful academic future for all scholars!
Close Reading
- Reading Carefully: Paying close attention to every word, sentence, and paragraph.
- Annotating: Underlining key passages, jotting down questions or comments, & highlighting key words or phrases.
- Identifying Patterns: Looking for recurring themes in the text to identify clues to the author's intent.
Our 3rd-5th grade scholars participate in Close Reading instruction Mondays-Wednesdays. We then assess scholars to learn if they are progressing towards effectively analyzing their reading.
Here's how you can help! Encourage your scholar to read at home, ask questions regarding what has been read to help deepen his/her thought process about their book.
Great readers practice reading each evening at home!
