The initial
investigation were seniors that failed their reading FCAT 4 or 5 times and have taken 4 or 5 intensive reading classes.
-
The initial screening
was the results of their previous FCAT and in the future will be their FAIR
data. It is important at this time
that students see the benefits of
the investigation and how it applies to them.
-
Reading
Check was administered to determine what students are doing and
thinking as they read and answer questions. It was graded using the Solution
hand out.
-
The analysis of their answers
was
accomplished using the Analysis Matrix. It assists in determining which of
the 4 areas, needs improvement and practice.
-
This will assist the student
and teacher to provide additional focus as the course Reading to
Graduate is administered. See FAIR in the assessment section for the
course of study.

66% of the seniors following the course
passed their FCAT.
