One of the assessment programs used for Reading at Archuleta is DRA2, where our students are tested 2-3 times per year on Fluency and Comprehension. The Reading levels (kinder-3rd grade). The expectation is that student reach a DRA level 28 by the end of 2nd grade.

It's important that you spend __at least 30 minutes a day__ reading with your child. To improve their comprehension, you can ask questions like:
 * Who are the characters in the story?
 * What's the setting?
 * What happened at the beginning, middle and end of the story?
 * What is the problem?
 * How do they solve the problem?
 * What personal connections can you make with the story?
 * What is the story about? What is the main idea?
 * What was your favorite part? Why?
 * What is the Author's message? What is the author trying to tell you?
