  Case: Student Strong in Math but lacks Reading Skills
Johnny does very well in my co-taught Math class, his grasp of the math content is very strong. In most of the small group settings he is the first one to complete all the answers correctly. HIs number sense is very strong and he is able to comprehend any math concept with ease. However, his reading skills are very low, he is hardly able to decode CVC words or blend them. Therefore,his math grades are really low when it involves reading word problems. I would welcome any suggestions to help Johnny fare well in Math.
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
As the end of year assessments are creating the necessity for students to have better reading skills, this is an issue. However, the student may need an accommodation which allows him to get his tests read which will help him develop him math comprehensions. However, this will not help him read better.
