Raz-Kids/Reading A-Z

Raz-Kids:

I will assign your child to a reading level based on their performance in the classroom.

· Your child needs to earn a checkmark for each of the symbols that are located under each book. (Complete the ear, eye and question mark.) See reading rules below.

· Your child earns “stars” for each checkmark that they earn. Near the top of the page you will find a tab labeled, Raz-Rocket. This is a space-themed area where students can “buy” items for their Raz-Rocket room using the stars that they earned from reading.

· Once a child earns a checkmark for all symbols, they automatically will be advanced to the next level of books.

NOTE: Advancing to the next level of books does not always accurately reflect their reading level at school, Raz-Kids reading levels are not the same reading level program we use at school (we use the Fountas and Pinnell leveling system.)

Raz- Kids Home Reading “Rules”

1. Only work on 1 book at a time

2. First, listen to the book. (Click the ear). Next, read the book. (Click the eye.) Finally, take the comprehension quiz. (Question mark)

a. If your child does not pass the quiz the first time: have them listen to the book again and then try retaking the quiz.

b. If they do not pass the quiz (earning a checkmark) the second time, move on to another book. I will look at the teacher side of the program and figure out what type of questions they are missing and we will work on that skill at school.
