Read Live Tip #3: Have you taught your students how to complete the steps in Read Naturally Live?

Students need to be trained in how to successfully complete the steps independently. Lesson plans in the Read Live User Guide can help in teaching the steps to students. You should walk through the entire process with the students twice. The first time you will demonstrate each step of the program as the students watch. The second time students will walk through the steps one more time as a group with each student at his or her own computer working in his or her own materials (series, level, and goal).

​We always welcome questions about best practices with your Read Naturally program and how to make sure you are implementing your school’s program correctly. Many of the questions we get are about the passing step. Here is a quick roundup of some of the most frequently asked questions.

Read Live Tip #1: Are you correctly placing your students in Read Naturally Live?

To maximize student improvement, it is critical that you use the Read Naturally Live placement process to place each student. Do not attempt to use the results from other reading assessments (including Benchmark Assessor Live) to designate a placement level for students. By using the Read Naturally Live placement process, you will place each student with a level and goal that will be challenging enough to accelerate reading improvement but will not be so difficult that the student becomes discouraged.
