RECOMMENDATIONS
Recommendations
Read Aloud
• Expose students to authentic reading materials
through read aloud and independent reading.
• Read aloud to students regularly.
• Select from varied genres of literature or non-fiction texts
for the read aloud.
• Conduct Read Aloud sessions even on days when PR1ME
English lessons are not scheduled.
Recommendations
Read Aloud
• Integrate reading across subject areas. Encourage
content area teachers to incorporate the use of non-
fiction and/or fiction books in their lessons whenever
possible.
Recommendations
Instruction: Phonics
• Give support to beginning and reluctant readers in
the early grades by providing a systematic and
explicit Phonics instruction, using the Scholastic
Phonics Readers which cover:
• Phonemic Awareness
• Decoding and Spelling
• Fluency
• Comprehension
Recommendations
Instruction: Reading Skills
• Equip Grades 3 to 6 students with reading strategies
through explicit teaching of comprehension skills.
• Highlight the skills’ steps and their importance in practical
and social context.
• Encourage the students to use graphic organizers when
reading difficult texts and as a pre-writing activity.
• Make use of the online Reading Assessment to monitor the
students’ comprehension skills. This may also significantly
help in increasing their Lexile levels.
Recommendations
Instruction: Reading Skills – Differentiated Instruction
• Differentiate instruction in the classroom, based on
the students’ levels of proficiency, to address their
varying needs.
• Model processing of information in texts read Monitor
students in the Advanced and Proficient levels during
independent practice. Display selected written works of
students.
Recommendations
Provide additional intervention for students with marked
delays in reading.
• Use Phonics lessons to teach students with significant
delays in reading.
• Provide additional comprehension skills practice for
students noted to have difficulty comprehending texts
across all subject areas.
Recommendations
Motivating Students to Read
Continue to encourage students to develop a habit of
and love for reading to sustain progress in their Lexile
scores.
• Ensure that students regularly borrow books from the
Reading Center or read eBooks in Literacy Pro and
achieve their targeted number of books read for the
school year.
Recommendations
Motivating Students to Read
• Initiate more reading-related activities in collaboration
with the Book Lovers’ Club and/or English Club.
• Integrate reading across subject areas. Encourage
content area teachers to do read aloud of non-fiction
or fiction books that may serve as springboard to their
lessons.
• Guide the students in choosing books that are right for
each of them by having them read according to their
Targeted Reading Range and their interests. Doing so
will motivate independent reading.
Recommendations
Motivating Students to Read
• Assign books for students to read at home or during
their free time.
• Encourage students to take LitPro book quizzes after
reading books.
• To encourage other students to read more books,
recognize/award the button pins and book prizes
during school or level assembly.
Recommendations
Maximizing LitPro usage in school and at home
• Teachers may opt to use LitPro eBooks for read aloud.
• Encourage parents of the primary grades to read to
and with their children using LitPro eBooks.
• Let students use LitPro as a book journal. Encourage
them to write their thoughts about the book they read
and just had a book quiz on.
Recommendations
Continue to develop students’ proficiency in English
• Conduct consistent, creative, and collaborative
vocabulary exercises.
• Create opportunities to speak and practice English in
academic and social contexts.
• In regular reading activities for primary students,
encourage them to use the audio books online to
practice fluency in reading and correct pronunciation.
• Make use of regular writing exercises related to
contexts of stories and/or books read by the students.
Recommendations
Parent Involvement
• Encourage parents to be involved in the development of their
children’s literacy by allowing them to conduct read aloud
sessions in their children’s classes
• Encourage them to read with their children at home.
• Invite the parents to attend the Parent Seminars to support
them in their roles in the literacy development of their
children.
• Encourage parents of students with marked delays to have
their children assessed to identify red flags and
recommendations for intervention.

NEXT STEPS
Next Steps
Preparation of Materials
• Share copies of the Reading Proficiency Report with
the implementers and librarians.
• Distribute the Parent Letter Report (PLR).
Next Steps
Student Conferencing
• Explain to students their Lexile score.
• Teach them to compute their Targeted Reading
Range (-100 from Lexile, +50 to it)
• Set individual reading goals.
• Example: Read 5 books per month
• 3 books within the TRR
• 2 books based on interest, any Lexile
Next Steps
Program Implementation
• Briefly review the components of Instruction with the
implementers – Read Aloud, Phonics, Skills, and
Guided Reading
Next Steps
Scheduling
• Use the implementation calendar as reference when
you discuss the upcoming Scholastic-related
activities.
• Secure schedule for lesson demonstrations and class
observations.
Next Steps
Scheduling
• Once-a-week PR1ME English class (for schools using
the full program)
• Once-a-week read aloud or book talk (for IRP schools)
• Library Period for independent reading
• Release of book tokens for students with 30 passed
quizzes
