What will be done with my students

This year, 39 students will be impacted by these laptops, and many other students will be impacted in our future classes. The laptops from this grant will be used for our students to access websites that will enhance their reading abilities. The students will be able to log in Renaissance Learning and take AR (Accelerated Reader) quizzes on books they have read. The students will access Learninga-z.com and read books/complete activities on their level. The students can log into Compass Learning and work on skills that they need to improve upon as prescribed by the STAR Diagnostic Reading Assessment. The students will also log into Moby Max on the laptops and complete more reading practice activities. All of these websites will help our students become proficient in reading. 

 

Benefits to my students

We will base our growth on the STAR Reading Assessment in May of 2018. We will compare the August 2017 score to the May 2018 score. Two teachers and two classes are to be impacted. Teacher A has 19 students. Of those 19, 13 scored below the 50th percentile on the STAR Reading Assessment. Teacher B has 20 students. Of those 20, 14 scored below the 50th percentile.
