The other group has been working on identifying short vowel phonemes and consonant phonemes and graphemes, as well as practicing active listening and effective discussion skills in classroom conversations. Way to go! 

MS and HS Literacy Support 

Middle School (MS) literacy support students receive assistance mainly with their literacy curriculum. However, they also get help in understanding Mathematics and Science vocabulary. They engage in various language arts exercises like writing a proper thesis statement, as well as practicing different grammar skills. Currently, they are working on reading and answering questions from a book they are reading. 

High School (HS) Literacy Support students focus on their literacy curriculum while also expanding their vocabulary in Mathematics, Science, and Cultural Studies. They also dedicate time to enhancing their reading comprehension abilities.
