Reading
This class is designed to address the needs of students that have some form of reading difficulties. The main purpose is to address the needs in the areas of; phonemic awareness, phonetics, writing, reading fluency and comprehension. The class usually selects a book to be read at the beginning of each semester. Before they begin the reading of the book selected, they are given background-knowledge of the the topic or main theme.
