LETRS Spotlight
|
“When starting LETRS training, I chose to work with three of my most struggling readers for my case study. One student in particular has really shown incredible gains. This student came into my classroom saying, 'I don't know how to read,' or 'I can't read.' As a 3rd-grade student, this isn't something he should be saying. It really came down to his lack of phonological and phonemic awareness.
"Using specific strategies and lessons from LETRS, he has shown an entire year's worth of reading gains at just this point in the school year. Now, he is still behind grade level, but this targeted approach will help close his gaps. The best part? He no longer says he can't read. He volunteers. He wants to read, and he is showing so much more confidence in himself.
"LETRS transforms how educators think about teaching reading. I know it has really changed my view of it and how I plan instruction.”
– Courtney Line, Memorial Elementary (Hart County)
