Interventions

When intervening with a student, make sure the student clearly understands the 3 Step process for each reading selection. Ask the student to explain that process to you. Do they understand the expectations for their recordings? Do they understand what is involved in taking the quiz after they've completed their recordings? Do they know that they can search through the selection to find answers to the quiz questions before giving their answers?

Comprehension Intervention

If the student is struggling with comprehension, provide the student with a checklist of activities to complete before taking the quiz in a reading selection. For example:

Step 1: Preview & Read – Listen to the selection and read along at least two times. Then read the selection silently all the way through at least one time. When you are finished, see how much of the selection you can remember.
Step 3: Take the Quiz – Review the selection before you begin answering questions.

Have the student complete the following student checklists for a selection, as needed:

Fluency Intervention

Step 1: Preview & Read – Listen and read along at least two times for each selection. Try reading aloud while you listen to the reading. Then choose the sentences that are difficult to read and listen to the model reading. Practice reading the sentences at the same rate and with the same expression.
Step 2: Read and Record – Think about what each sentence means as you read it aloud. Play your recordings and find any sentences you did not read fluently. Then practice reading those sentences. After each recording, listen to and practice reading words that are marked in red or blue.
With each recording in Step 2, try to make the text "come alive" by putting more expression into your reading.

Have the student complete the following student checklists for a selection, as needed:
