Proven Success with Diverse Students

Grammar Module

Grammar Practice & Application

Grammar activities reinforce what students just learned.

After acquiring proficiency in specific grammar concepts within MRC, students are automatically assigned corresponding LightSail Grammar Rule and Parts of Speech activities. These activities seamlessly enable student engagement with high-interest stories of their choice, enabling them to practice and apply their newly acquired knowledge.

Phonics Module

Improve understanding

Give students additional exposure to homophones.

To reinforce understanding of homophones, MRC Phonics implements contextual spelling lessons. Following this, LightSail activities are assigned to provide high-interest reading opportunities incorporating homophones. These LightSail activities are tailored to challenge students at their functional level, ensuring appropriate frequency and duration of exposure.

Vocabulary Module

Improve understanding

Following MRC Vocabulary instruction, students will automatically receive the chance to demonstrate their vocabulary knowledge through engaging passages sourced from LightSail. LightSail will offer activities designed for students to demonstrate their knowledge of the vocabulary words they’ve learned in MRC. This transference of vocabulary knowledge from MRC to LightSail provides students with multiple opportunities to practice their knowledge of new words in diverse contexts, which ensures their thorough comprehension of word meanings and usage.

Fluency/Comprehension Module

Reinforce comprehension

Assign lessons that target and reinforce comprehension skills.

Upon completion of the Fluency activities in MRC, students are assigned comprehension lessons to address specific skill gaps that hinder their independent reading comprehension growth. As students successfully master these lessons, their independent reading in LightSail will be tailored towards content featuring practice questions that reinforce the recently acquired concepts.
