My favorite learning website by Thereza

 My favorite learning website is Read Theory (www.readtheory.org). Students first take a placement test, which offers passages at a third grade level. Therefore, if you have a student who is a six grader, but reading at a second grade level, he is given passages that actually correspond to his reading level. The program adapts to the students needs and skills. For instance, as they take their quizzes, depending on the kind of mistake they make, the next passage will level up on their reading grade level and lexile. Students earn points, which I use as an incentive. They can exchange a certain number of points for prizes or some other cool stuff they want. My students really enjoy their reading experience on Read Theory. Another advantage is that teachers have access to the passages and quizzes the students took, see their mistakes, and have a report on the grade level, lexile and reading features that they missed.
