All staff are trained and assist with this comprehensive program. Accelerated Reading is an important part of the reading environment. This is a comprehension reading program. Students read books at their independent level and take tests on the computer to measure their level of success. Project READ is a computer generated program for third graders.
Students use software to read and perform reading comprehension tasks.
Book-It is another way that we encourage reading. Children read at home with their parents as monitors. Each month they bring back a calendar of time read and receive rewards for their efforts. We are committed to the Guilford County Schools Balanced Literacy Plan. The students benefit from the time, energy and effort of the teachers as they develop this into a strong program for Alderman students.
