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!) I would definitely see if these students could be pulled out by a differentiation coach or given 30 minutes a day in class to work independently on a reading program (computerized, so that the student could work at home) that would incorporate the student to advance from different levels. I would set goals each week in regards to sight words and assess weekly for progress.
