The Reading Launch Pad is an innovative project that
emphasizes the use of technology to deliver curriculum
and improve student reading abilities. The Reading Launch Pad project will
enhance the reading program at New Market Elementary School by providing
students with experience using technology which includes hardware, software,
Internet projects, email, video conferencing and online resources to improve
reading ability. This state of the art project will provide elementary
grade level students with instruction by a technology facilitator
in a lab environment. Through coordination of the technology facilitator
and the classroom teacher, students will be able to carry projects from
the lab into the classroom. The classroom teacher will attend the reading
lab sessions with their students. In addition teachers will also receive
training through attendance at a Reading
Renaissance provided through the Academy of Reading Excellence.
Students will participate in innovative projects that will incorporate
reading objectives as identified by the State Curriculum Framework Reading
Objectives. k |
