Logan's Summary


Logan's Summary
Corey Galbreath

Logan was a struggling second grader who received early intervention help and made a great improvement in reading. In third grade his teacher administered the Basic Reading Inventory and the results showed his decoding skills and word identification had improved since he received early intervention. Even though his word identification was very strong, his reading was very low for his grade level. Logan does not comprehend all of the information he reads and reads at a very slow rate. Due to this, Logan does not enjoy to read because he is a lot slower than other classmates. He gets embarrassed if he has to read something out loud and overall it is lowering his self-esteem. Logan needs to be encouraged by his teachers and further actions need to take place so Logan can back on his grade level in reading and comprehension. Some actions that can take place are to give Logan a book that is below his instructional level and thus he will be able to read it faster and this will help build his confidence knowing that he read a book fast. Encouraging Logan 24/7 is a big factor and will help boost his self-esteem. Structured repeated reading will increase Logan's motivation and use a Reading Progress Chart as a visible means of demonstrating progress.
