Help Support Reading Growth for Students!

Hi!! I’m an Intervention Specialist for Cincinnati Public Schools and work with students in grades 4th-6th. Many of my students have reading deficits and need personalized interventions to help them grow and make progress. I am raising funds for a reading program that my students can utilize not only at school, but at home as well. This fundraiser will allow a full year subscription for my caseload of students.

Read Live is a suite of web-based reading intervention programs that accelerate reading achievement by combining the research proven strategies of teacher modeling, repeated reading, and progress monitoring. Students work at their own pace in an appropriate level of material. Text and audio prompts guide students through a series of carefully sequenced steps. A student passes a story after reading along with an audio recording and then practicing until they read the story fluently and answer comprehension questions accurately. The program automatically tracks student progress and provides extensive reports.

I would like to purchase Read Live subscriptions for students who are reading below grade level. Each subscription includes access to four effective instructional programs. The intent of this project is to assist students in improving their reading fluency, phonics, vocabulary, and comprehension skills. Many of our students do not meet specified guidelines for oral fluency gains when tested using benchmark assessment tools. They need guidance to be able to read with proper expression and phrasing which leads to improved comprehension. These students need support beyond the core curriculum, and this supplemental program will provide individualized intervention.
