Covid Intensive Tutoring Program - Year 8 Reading Workshops

This year the College has received funding to assist students who may have been impacted last year by the COVID interruptions to learning. After considering a number of options, the main need at Mount Carmel is around students who we have identified via PAT assessments as requiring some additional support to maintain and improve on their current level of literacy achievement. 

As a result of this, we are providing identified students with an opportunity during Term 4 to engage in small group tutoring with Mrs Penfold (Intensive Learning Tutor - Literacy and English Teacher). 

Students involved in the Term 4 Reading Workshop will:

• meet weekly in small groups (5-8 students) for reading activities
• receive a tailored list of ‘to be read’ books based on interest surveys and teacher conferences
• be guided through reading strategies facilitated by Mrs Penfold 
• participate in literature circles with peers to further promote reading engagement

The aim of the program is to provide the selected students with the opportunity to consolidate and enhance their literacy skills through explicit instruction and to foster engagement and enjoyment of reading. By consolidating these skills, students will be equipped with reading strategies that enable them to progress confidently through Stage 5 coursework next year.
