Formative Assessment With SoapBox Technology The SoapBox Child-Specific Voice Technology provides feedback and granular phoneme level reporting that parses out student data and offers teachers a longitudinal view of student progress across decoding, automaticity, and fluency. Actionable, real-time, phoneme-level reporting enables teachers to personalize and target instruction without monopolizing time and resources. The SoapBox-powered activities provide students with practice opportunities and more control over their reading. Students read target words and sentences from Ready4Reading decodable texts, listen to their own recordings, and hear model pronunciations of target words. Word Warm-Ups for Decodables
The eBooks for Short Reads Decodables and Read to Know Text Sets feature a Word Warm-Up activity in which students practice decoding target words from the text they are about to read. They receive real-time feedback about how accurately they read and pronounce each word. When they struggle, they receive help via model pronunciations. The data shared with teachers identifies how well students are decoding targeted sound-spellings in the words that are important to the text they are about to read. Read & Record for Decodables Students complete the Read & Record activity after reading a decodable text. They are prompted to read aloud excerpts from the Short Reads Decodables and the Read to Know Text Sets they have read. Students have the chance to demonstrate their accuracy within the context of reading sentences containing target and review phonic elements. They also demonstrate their fluency across a sentence or set of sentences. Teachers receive data pertaining to how well and how automatically students are decoding words and sounds relevant to the text they have read. Read & Record helps readers move from being dependent on instruction to reading with independence. It prepares them for the natural language texts they encounter as they transition into content-area reading.
