Reading accomplishments...

DAY 146 - May 26, 2009


Kaden has struggled with his reading this year. He tends to rush through and doesn't like to slow down and sound things out like he should. He has shown great improvement over the school year though and we were so excited when he brought home this certificate! He was presented with it in Reading class by Mrs. Ladd. What is it for? He got the highest Lexile score in his reading class for the year! Lexile is a rating system Jeremiah Gray uses to measure the kids reading levels. It's a number score and anything below a 150 is considered a "beginning reader". Kaden was at that level for most of the year but in the last quarter when he took the Lexile test he scored over 500!! We were so proud of him! Here he is sporting his certificate...can you tell how proud he is of himself?!?
