About Lexia Learning in PWCS
The Office of English Learner Programs and Services is excited to provide PWCS schools with licenses for Lexia Learning.
Students in grades K-five will have access to the Lexia® Core5® Reading program where they can:
- Develop fundamental literacy skills in six areas of reading instruction that have been identified by national reading experts: phonological awareness, phonics, structural analysis, fluency, vocabulary, and comprehension;
- Receive scaffolding, corrective feedback, and direct instruction in Core 5 when needed; and
- Have their teacher monitor his or her progress and performance in the online activities through data reports. These reports help teachers to determine if a student is struggling with a specific skill and requires targeted, teacher-led instruction.
Students in grades six-12 will have access to Lexia Power Up where they can:
- Build on the English language arts classroom curriculum, focusing on developing skills in three areas essential to becoming a proficient reader: Word Study, Grammar, and Comprehension; and
- Have their teacher provide help when needed based on student progress and performance.
