⁉️DID YOU KNOW?! 👉🏻Reading and writing go hand in hand! You can’t have one without the other!

✨ Reading more often introduces your student to more words and phrases.

📝 More words and phrases means your student is expanding their vocabulary, which can help them expand on their writing.

🤔How can you help your student grow in BOTH areas?
📖1. Have them READ the text as if they were the writer. Analyze the structure, word usage and purpose.
AND
✏️2. Have them WRITE for the reader. Think about what would hook the reader and keep them locked into the story, while considering structure, word usage and purpose.

It’s a perfect union of skills! ❤️📖📝

📖Becoming a reader doesn’t happen overnight! It takes a lot of practice and repetition with your kiddos to help them become fluent. When they aren’t picking up and retaining foundational skills, this is when intervention should happen! We can help! Reach out today and inquire about our sessions!

✏️ Did you know there is a difference between reading instruction and reading intervention?!

📖 Reading instruction is the Tier 1 instruction taught in a classroom. This is typically whole group based, and covers an overarching skill from the curriculum, such as identifying rhyming words, or finding the main idea.

📝 Reading Intervention is what takes place when the student doesn’t grasp the skill in Tier 1. This brings the student into a smaller group, or individual setting, to evaluate why the student is struggling, and allows for retroactive teaching (going back to a previous skill) a reteach, practice and application of the skill risk free (outside of grades or assignments).

Reading intervention is imperative for students struggling to learn to read. Contact us today to find out how we can help! ☎️
