Description
Lexia® PowerUp Literacy® is designed to enhance literacy development for students in grades 6–12 who are at a heightened risk of falling short of College- and Career-Ready Standards. It has been demonstrated to be as much as five times more effective than typical middle school reading interventions, allowing students to achieve several years' worth of progress within just one academic year. By the time students reach grades 6–12, they are expected to transition from the process of learning how to read to engaging in reading for learning. Despite this expectation, assessments such as the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) have consistently indicated a significant opportunity gap, revealing that only approximately one-third of eighth-grade students are reading at or above proficient levels. With reading being the primary medium of most secondary education curricula, many students face the risk of not realizing their full academic capabilities. Fortunately, PowerUp addresses this issue, drawing on over three decades of experience in delivering effective Structured Literacy programs; therefore, Lexia's literacy specialists tailored PowerUp specifically to enhance student learning outcomes in a meaningful way. By focusing on personalized learning paths, PowerUp ensures that every student has the chance to overcome literacy challenges and thrive in their educational journey.
Description
Integrating context and relevance into any English Language Arts (ELA) curriculum is crucial for effective literacy instruction. To foster genuine engagement, it is essential to introduce topics that resonate with students, simultaneously enhancing their background knowledge and vocabulary in order to cultivate active and involved readers. The notion that student engagement and standards-aligned ELA instruction are incompatible is a misconception; in fact, they can complement one another seamlessly. By designing captivating ELA lessons that consistently incorporate authentic, leveled content aligned with standards, educators can spark students' curiosity. With access to over 10,000 texts spanning more than 20 genres, learners can delve deeply into a wide array of subjects, ensuring they encounter the intricate texts that await them both in academic settings and beyond. Each text is accompanied by a quiz tailored to ELA standards, focusing on either informational reading or literature, allowing teachers to hone in on the unique skill development needs of each student while fostering a love for reading. This approach not only enriches the learning experience but also prepares students for the diverse reading challenges they will face in the future.
