Best wishes to you and your students. Research and Results Report is designed for educators who are working hard to improve the reading achievement of their students. Reading achievement is positively related to the amount of reading accomplished. Vocabulary and concept knowledge can be built through reading. Carefully-selected reading practice is one of the best ways to strengthen reading skills and foster the reading habit.
Motivation is essential for maintaining a student's sustained attention on reading.
Comprehension , the goal of effective reading instruction, requires wide reading, responding to questions, and talking and writing about what is read. Struggling readers require a supportive literacy environment as part of a carefully planned intervention program. Families and communities have a critical role in helping students become successful readers. Assessment and evaluation are necessary in order to check student progress and adjust instruction.
