  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!)
There is some apps and computer programs such as teachyourmostertoread.com or raz kids that can help the students in reading. Make the use of one for that particular child every day for 15-20 minutes and he will improve. I would have a meeting with his parents, so they are aware of the situation and can be a support at home encouraging to read every day.
