It allows students to create a source of interaction through quizzing and questioning. As a teacher, you can use this to assess what students are understanding and what is most confusing.

PebblePad is yet another great resource for educators and students alike. This source promotes the accessibility of resources to curve and strengthen our understanding based on specific topics of interest.

I think students can use this in my classroom to show their understanding of topics, as well as share responses and ways to apply concepts to other modes of learning.

After 2016, all education students must graduate with the reading endorsement.

Students entering third grade a year from now will be allowed to advance to fourth grade only if they achieve a minimum score on Ohio’s third-grade reading assessment.

Districts must take seriously the law’s requirement that they offer additional reading support to K-3 students who are identified as reading below grade level. High-quality, student-centered, intensive intervention—especially for first and second graders—should help more students read on grade level by the end of third grade and prevent mandatory retentions. Similarly, districts should consider retaining students earlier than third grade if they cannot read.  

Some key points from the new requirement include: All K-3 students will undergo annual diagnostic tests to determine reading ability; If a student is not on track to read at grade level, the school district must create a reading improvement and monitoring plan that details the student’s reading deficiencies, describes needed interventions and includes parents in the improvement plan;

Unless students are exempted for reasons stated in law, those who have not reached grade-level reading by the end of the third grade will be retained; and

Students who are retained will continue to receive intensive remediation, including at least 90 minutes of reading instruction daily.

Background The idea behind the third-grade reading requirement is that it’s important for students to read by third grade in order to master other subjects. Plus, the requirement is intended to focus schools’ and parents’ attention on third-grade reading.

A part of each retained student's plan must be 90 minutes of reading instruction that include the determined interventions. These 90 minutes of reading instruction may occur during regular classroom activities throughout the school day.

But the researcher who wrote a report the Kasich administration cites in support of the proposal says that without other changes and perhaps more money for schools, the third-grade reading guarantee is unlikely to leave children better off.

“It’s not going to be effective in the long run and certainly it’s not effective for children to just think of a one-time boost,” he says.

The report looked at a national database of nearly 4,000 students born between 1979 and 1989 and found that students who do not read proficiently by third grade are four times more likely to drop out of school by age 19 than students who can read proficiently.

If the student remains in the third grade, the school must provide a high-performing reading teacher and 90 minutes of reading instruction each school day.

Resources to provide parents with the tools and information to help their children learn to read and develop other skills to succeed.

Except for students with special circumstances, students must meet a minimum score on the state reading test to move on to the fourth grade.

A student learning objective is a measurable, long-term academic growth target that a teacher sets at the beginning of the year for all students or for subgroups of students. Student learning objectives demonstrate a teacher’s impact on student learning.

Interactions with people and the environment is something that should be seen.

With technology this is now possible to show students how the train takes the tracks or how the truck follows the freeway and what do the cities look like that they are going to.

First, I could use it in a small crowd form just using my students.

I could ask each student to draw a picture to share
