READERS WORKSHOP & ELA SUPPORT in the AIS Classroom
Reading instruction relies on research that shows that kids need to read a lot of texts, with high comprehension, in order to move up levels of text complexity. In AIS, students work with support at a level just above their independent reading level to help develop skills and stretch readers to the next level.
