Submitted by: Teacher
Grade Level: Middle School
Competency: Below Level
I am looking for easy-to-use and effective reading intervention strategies programs at our middle school. We are willing to do this during the school day and before or after school. Our interventions could be school wide or by grade level with 6th and 7th grade being our greatest concern.
ANSWER:
We’ve helped many middle school teachers improve their students reading skills. The software has been rigorously researched and shown to improve reading language arts test scores. Take a look at Developing Critical Thinking Skills for Effective Reading and Vocabulary Stretch. Developing Critical Thinking Skills for Effective Reading helps students improve their reading comprehension and develops their ability to make inferences. It is designed for students who read at a 5th to 8th grade level. Vocabulary Stretch is vocabulary-building software that helps students recognize words in different contexts and understand where many English words come from. It is designed for students in grades 4 through 7.
