Our AR reading program is coming along nicely and the students are taking tests daily. The goal of this reading program is to increase your child's fluency, vocabulary, and comprehension. Research shows the more a child practices reading on a daily basis, the more fluent he/she becomes. This includes being read to by an adult, reading aloud to a parent, and reading silently. Second graders should be reading 80 words per minute at this time. Practicing reading will help your child increase this level. Thank you for your continued support!
