Meet Jack
We’re delighted to introduce one of our Reading Plus Champions, Year 4 pupil Jack from Ribbon Academy.
Jack’s teacher, Kim Flower, nominated him for the role and shared with us:
“Jack is our rising star through Reading Plus. His dedication and effort don’t go unnoticed while he modestly works his way through the programme. We love Jack’s determination as he strives to better himself – showing all his Ribbon Virtues.”
The role of Champions
At Reading Solutions UK, we are devoted to accelerating reading progress while instilling a love for reading in our students. One way in which we do this is by appointing Reading Plus Champions who have the opportunity to complete additional exciting tasks, including:
- Reviewing new (and unseen!) texts to be added to Reading Plus.
- Sharing their experience of Reading Plus in a blog titled ‘My Reading Plus Journey’.
- Collaborating with us on interviews with children’s authors.
We’re delighted to publish Jack’s Reading Plus Journey!
I have always enjoyed reading. My favourite books are football books. My favourite Reading Plus text is Lionel Messi.
I enjoy using Reading Plus. Reading Plus introduced me to animal books. When you read about animals, you learn about their habitats and how they live.
I feel like my reading skills have gone up.
My advice for other students on their Reading Plus journey is to start by reading the books you like, then try a book that you like the look of.
An adaptive programme
Every Reading Plus journey will be different as our adaptive programme places all students on a personalised learning path to success.
Students begin with an adaptive assessment, which provides a baseline and a data-driven starting point. These results place each student at the right level in the programme before creating a learning pathway to accelerate their strengths and improve their weaknesses.
Over 1,300 high-quality and age-appropriate informational, fiction and non-fiction texts are then available for students to self-select from to develop comprehension and vocabulary knowledge.
These engaging texts, instant feedback and gamification features keep students motivated.
As students progress through their adaptive, personalised path:
- Their fluency, stamina, comprehension and vocabulary improve – as does motivation.
- Cross-curricular subject knowledge improves due to the variety of text types and topics.
- They become curious and confident readers who are more likely to read for pleasure.
Book a free four-week pilot to see first-hand how Reading Plus improves fluency, comprehension and vocabulary in your school.
