  Case: Below Level Readers
In Ms. Sands class she has numerous students that are reading at beginning reader level in the 4th grade. These students are continuing to fall further behind in all subjects because of this reading deficiency. When they are given verbal instruction or have the tests read to them, they are able to pass. But, when they are not read to, they fail. Due to the fact that they do not have an IEP or 504 plan, reading the test to them is not an ongoing option. Any suggestion?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
The first thing would be to start the steps to get them tested for an IEP or 504 plan to receive these modifications on all assessments. Until then, the teacher could read the test to the class as a whole or ask for a paraprofessional or special education teacher to assist as much as possible.
