Effective teachers are forever learning, “for those who dare to teach must never cease to learn.”
A workshop was organized for the English teachers to empower the reading program at MRIS-Sector 14 Faridabad. The workshop was conducted by Ms. Rachna Singh, from Scholastics on the usage of Literacy Pro– a comprehensive reading program which includes both instructional reading and independent reading in classroom. Teachers were also informed of the various ways and tools to incorporate the lexile reading into their teaching learning practice in order to enrich the quality of learning.
Literacy pro empowers teachers and students with a blended solution that curates a personalized reading growth record and ensures effective and independent reading with measurable standards. The program also helps to develop a sense of ownership, purpose and self -discovery among students by offering them a wide range of choices and a comfortable pace to curate their reading journey.
With the motive to take the programme further, a reading test was also conducted for the students to generate their lexile scores. These scores would be given to the parents so that they can also motivate their ward to choose and read the books as per their lexile score. A Lexile Book fair, in collaboration with Scholastics, will also be organized for the students to select books as per their lexile scores.
