Targeting Student Achievement

Targeting student achievement in vocabulary requires that we focus on specific reading strategies grounded in scientifically-based reading research.

(Slide contains an image of a target with sections "Beyond the School Day," "Comprehension," "Vocabulary," "Fluency," "Word Recognition," "The Standards," "Effective First Teaching," "In-class Interventions," "Management," and "Classroom Instruction that Works" in the outside ring; "Effective Classroom Organization," and "Specific Reading Strategies" in the next inner ring; "Standards & Curriculum," "Professional Development," "Powerful Instruction," and "Assessment" in the next inner ring; with "Student Achievement" as the bullseye. There is an arrow pointing to "Student Achievement." )
