  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!)
These students should be submitted for review to get accommodations put in place that will benefit them! If the students are successful with the oral directions, then they should have a plan that states that. The students may know the material but are not being successful because of the reading portion. This negatively affects their grade when it could be that they know the answers to the science questions they just can't read them. This should be dealt with quickly, as it seems there should have already been a plan put into place for them.
