OPTION 1
Implementation Models There is more than one way to use Bringing Classroom to Life . Classroom teachers can use the plays with the entire class as a supplemental reading program and fluency builder. Targeted Assistance teachers can use it with small groups of striving readers. The program also works beautifully in academic enrichment settings, including after-school programs, Saturday academy, or summer school. And for teachers with an interest in performance, the program can be used to produce dramatic reading performances or even a fully-dramatized school play. The program’s consultant will provide support in any implementation model that works for the school or teacher.
CLASSROOM READING
How it works: The whole class reads the plays out loud together. Each child gets a ‘character card’ with an illustration of their role. They read each play 3 to 5 times to build fluency, vocabulary and comprehension.
Home-School Connection: Students practice their lines in the play at home, becoming ever-more fluent readers. Our online library provides access to all our plays so that budding dramatists can act them to their heart’s content.
ELA and Math Skills: Each play comes with a
CCSS-aligned ELA and Math Workbook. Teachers can use this to provide extra practice in a wide range of core ELA and Math skills from vocabulary to writing to word problems. It even includes Test Prep practice for state exams. Outcomes: Greater fluency and comprehension; Increased love of reading; Improvement in writing, vocabulary and math word problems.
