Meet Alberto.
Alberto has struggled to keep up his grades since beginning the middle school soccer team. He previously struggled in reading around 3rd grade but passed standardized testing that year on the second try. Alberto is currently failing ELA, History and Biology. His obtained 2s on his FAST Reading tests for both 4th and 6th grade. His 5th grade FAST was a 3. Alberto’s standardized reading fluency and comprehension scores are at the 25th and 20th percentile rank.
Learning Plan:
Alberto enrolls in study pods to organize his coursework and upcoming tests and projects. He is taught a study skill and then allowed time to implement the skills with an educator present for support.
Individualized Plan:
Alberto’s standardized testing scores indicated average to at-risk at baseline. But on retesting his reading at 3 months showed scores within normal limits.
Alberto Returns to the Field!
Alberto attends study pods twice a week for two months. His pod instructor documents educational methods used as well as Alberto’s progress. Monitoring shows Alberto learned study strategies and even picks up his reading speed in retesting. Alberto is off the bench and speeding along this quarter!
