READ 180
READ 180 is a comprehensive system of
curriculum, instruction, assessment, and professional development proven
to raise reading achievement for struggling readers in grades 4—12+.
With the end of iLeap and Leap testing, we are free to begin our novel Freak the Mighty. I
intend on using my vodcast to introduce the book as well as have
students write something about their best friend. I am so excited about
beginning this novel as it is one of my favorites. After we finish
reading the book, I plan on showing my students the movie and have them
complete a Venn diagram comparing and contrasting the book to the
movie. Not only did I enjoy the book, but I felt the movie did the book
justice.
