Reading Plus Reminder for all ELA students:

​

All students attending Kailua High School are enrolled in the Reading Plus program and are expected to be active users of this account. This program is designed to improve student reading levels by 3 if used with fidelity. The program is also designed to improve student reading speed and efficiency. Students are screened and have assignments to complete each week. Reading Plus will make up 15% of a student’s ELA grade. Teachers will record each student’s grade each week (RP1, RP2, RP3, etc.). Reading Plus grades are given based on comprehension rate and only if students complete ALL of their reading plus assignments for the week. This program is a schoolwide initiative and students are expected to continue the use of the program even during a distance learning situation or when absent due to non-emergencies. Keep in mind that if a student receives a 0 for a Reading Plus Week, they are unable to make it up because the program will move on to the next week. For more information on why we use the Reading Plus program, please visit: https://news.readingplus.com/why-reading-plus-works-video for a short video.
