Explorer Express: Reading Activity


This program is designed to provide the additional support to improve these students’ reading and writing skills so their literacy skills are on grade level by the end of the year. Activities will include engaging in book discussions, learning new vocabulary, and becoming research experts. Additionally, students will read independently to increase their accuracy and reading comprehension by using a leveled library appropriate to their reading level. This program activity gives students opportunities to learn reading incentives and produce their own video based on their research work.
