Reading is a key foundational skill all learners need. As educators, how do we teach this skill to all children effectively and measure their success? Today''s students demand that we tailor our approaches to meet their needs specifically. Using 3-tiered instruction, differentiated learning activities, and skill specific targeted interventions we can meet all students at their own level of understanding and build skills that match their individual profile. By setting benchmarks and progress monitoring we collect data on student failures and successes that give us the information we need to make specific alterations to a student''s plan for learning. These tasks can be accomplished by restructuring the design of our lessons and the configurations of staff that service these specific areas. Educators need to work as a collaborative team to provide a successful foundation for all children to build a life long love of reading and learning.
