This year I worked with reluctant and struggling readers who were significantly below grade level using Read 180, an intensive individualized reading intervention program. I worked extremely hard getting to know my students to build connections with them and connect them with reading material that was motivating. Yesterday I had "cool" seventh graders (who began the year hating reading and performing at low elementary levels) high fiving one another and dancing around the room because they achieved their goal of reading 100,000 words this quarter!
