Scholastic Reading Counts
East Grand School District Elementary Schools use the Scholastic Reading Counts program to encourage and support independent reading skills in the students. The following eight findings from reliable research provide the foundation for Scholastic Reading Counts!
1. Reading achievement is positively related to the amount of reading accomplished.
2. Vocabulary and concept knowledge can be built through reading.
3. Carefully-selected reading practice is one of the best ways to strengthen reading skills and foster reading habits.
4. Motivation is essential for maintaining a student's sustained attention on reading.
5. Comprehension, the goal of effective reading instruction, requires wide reading, responding to questions, and talking and writing about what is read.
6. Struggling readers require a supportive literacy environment as part of a carefully planned intervention program.
7. Families and communities have a critical role in helping students become successful readers.
8. Assessment and evaluation are necessary in order to check student progress and adjust instruction.
