I will be teaching greds 6 and 8 AIS next year. AIS is a response to
intervention program for kids who have scored a low 2 on our state's assessment
the
previous year. I've taught these same courses this year and I have found the
kids have very poor vocabulary, fluency issues and their comprehension is
terrible. The 8th graders really concern me as they are one year from moving
into a
highly rigorous high school program. If you were to teach these classes what
are some things you would do? How would you set the program up?
Any suggestions on professional books that would be a help in this area?
Thanks
Pat - NY
