Goal

Currently 20% of my class is proficient on the beginning of year FAST ELA assessment. My long term goal is for 85% of my students to be proficient on the end of year FAST ELA assessment. Currently 10% of my students are on grade level on Lexia Core 5 reading program. My short term goal is for 100% of my students to be working on a fourth grade reading level on the Lexia Core 5 Reading program.

Learning Aids - Sunshine state book sets, robotics kits, puzzle boards, science models, engineering supplies, etc. 

 

What will be done with my students

I have conferenced with all students about their beginning of year FAST ELA Assessment score as well as their beginning of year Lexia Core 5 grade level placement test.
Students have set a goal to increase their score on the FAST and increase their Lexia score to a fourth grade level.
When students pass a Lexia lesson, they will be given Legos and time to build and create with Legos as a reinforcement for increasing their reading comprehension scores on Lexia. Students will have opportunities to earn and collect Legos each day. They will have time to work with the Legos they collect or with kits each week. My students will begin keeping data on their reading comprehension scores.

 

 

Benefits to my students

I will use this engaging approach which combines hands-on building with positive reinforcement, allowing students to enhance their reading comprehension while fostering behaviors like focus, perseverance, and a growth mindset. By rewarding increased reading comprehension scores with Legos, as well as incentivizing classroom participation and support for peers, I will create a motivating environment. Additionally, having students track their reading comprehension, empowers them to take ownership of their learning, making the experience both fun and educational. 

 

Budget Narrative

The LEGO bricks would be used to reinforce students that increased their reading comprehension scores.
