The Intensive Reading class that I teach is the lowest level of reading. Students are taught at a third grade level. The majority of the students have learning disabilities and/or English Language Learners. The students come from economically disadvantaged homes. They do not have the resources and support at home to enhance literacy skills.The students cannot take advantage of after school tutoring or the use of the public library due to the lack of proper transportation. Students live too far from local resources to walk. We can help lower the drop out rate by giving these students the skills to pass each grade level and eventually graduate high school. Students who do not pass state standardized test in high school have a higher chance of dropping out. I want to give them the skills and self esteem to succeed.
