“Severity refers to the degree of reading difficulty a student experiences across all component skills. Specificity refers to the specific component skills in which a student has difficulty.” #Education #Educators #Leadership #Academics

EL reading profiles are most distinct from non-EL reading profiles in that they will require more attention to comprehension at large: plentiful opportunities for social interaction and engagement with shared texts to gain the English language. But for ELs who also have difficulty reading, greater attention must be paid to BOTH code-based and meaning-based skills, with greater intensity/dosage according to need #research #literacy #reading #multilingual https://lnkd.in/eqQWDCdA

Attention students with required summer reading or students just in need of reading assistance or a summer reading boost!!! 📚📚📚📚📚📚📚📚📚📚📚📚📚📚📚📚📚📚📚📚 Need some reading help but don’t know where to go or who to ask? Want to be able to contribute in class? Do you wish that you were reading confidently at your grade level or even above? Want to be able to answer questions in discussions without worrying about whether you might be saying something incorrect or that you somehow blurred the facts? Feel aft rad or that it’s pointless to ask questions in class because you’d likely sound stupid and probably everyone else because everyone else understands but you? Not to worry, as I’ve assisted students now with reading for years. I graduated from the University of Notre Dame as an English major with honors and the Spanish minor. In fact, for one of my favorite senior year Liit classes, the entire semester was focused and taught at alocal public schoo. I was assigned a first grade student, who only did dittios, couldn’t read aloud, andthus was behind grade leve. My student was named Raven-Symoné, and to this day I still have my album from our meetings that year, my favorites being toward the end of the school year because her smile literally grew bigger and bigger as her confidence grew with her ability to read and decipher more words. Finally she could read at the first grade level, I was thrilled for her! My next stops were two Metro Atlanta, private schools, where I spent eight years, teaching middle school and junior high, English and creative writing, the majority of those years spent at my alma mater, The Westminster schools. As both the student at Westminster and teacher at Westminster, reading in general and summer rating were always a very big deal. I designed projects around the books around the books and we absolutely got into intense discussions about the required reading. Now I am a traveling teache/tutor who works with students throughout the year to assist with them with their English, LA and Creative Writing classes and get them up to speed and staying up to speed with literature and writing, etc. and I also assist with some reading, because it can be cumbersome for some students. Just a few of the things we will do during summer reading or literature session:. Identifying key aspects of setting, place, time and details to support same,aAnalyzing character sketches, text structure, improving annotation skills, inspire motivation and inspiration, especially tips for non-devout readers ,teach and experiment with literary devices,,vocab building skills, understanding and employing figurative , and establishing overall classroom readiness. If any of this sounds both fun and beneficial to assist you with summer reading or if it sounds like a solid idea to assist you with English or language arts during theschool year, please feel free to give me a call or email me.
