Introduction to the Process

The students in my class had a combined 64% vocabulary comprehension in the Read 180 intervention program, measured by daily computer software use. This affects reading fluency and the ability to answer comprehension questions, therefore, many of their other test scores are low as well. During class, I could tell that some of the vocabulary activities in the book weren't enough for students to be able to fully understand and remember the words and meanings. I wanted to find a way to expand the activities in the program to make them more multi-modal friendly to boost the students' language acquisition.

The picture to the right is an example of comprehension and vocabulary scores for units in the computer software from a student in my class.
