READ 180
The READ 180 Instructional Model provides a simple way to organize instruction and classroom activity. The session begins and ends with whole-group teacher-directed instruction. In between whole-group meetings, students break into three small groups that rotate among three stations as shown below.
Using READ 180 instructional materials, the teacher begins the day by providing systematic instruction in reading, writing, and vocabulary to the whole class. Using the rBook and Resources for Differentiated Instruction, the teacher works closely with students so that individual needs can be met. Students use READ 180 Software independently, providing them with intensive, individualized skills practice. Students build fluency and reading comprehension skills through modeled and independent reading of the READ 180 Paperbacks and Audio books. The program also entails a wrap-up session to review the covered material at the end of the group discussions.
