Lexia Core 5 (K-5th)

To support our students with literacy, the district has provided your student with Lexia® Core5® Reading—a fun, computer-based program that has helped millions of students improve their literacy skills. The activities in Core5 support and focus on developing reading skills in six areas: phonological awareness, phonics, structural analysis, fluency, vocabulary, and comprehension. 

Scope and Sequence 

Here’s how Lexia Core5 Reading works: 

• The first time a student logs on they do a 15 min placement. It is important that parents don’t help them. The program will stop automatically when the placement is complete.

*Your child begins Core5 at a starting point that fits his or her needs and then engages in online activities throughout the week.The program will suggest an amount of time/week that the student  should work to stay on track - 40 - 80 minutes

• Online activities include direct instruction and immediate feedback as your child learns new skills. When the red apple lights up, it signals that a student is in a challenging area.

• Progress and performance in the program are reported directly to teachers so that they can provide assistance when needed. Lessons are available and can be shared with you to help your child through challenging areas.

• Paper-and-pencil skill building activities are also available for practice 

We understand that not all students benefit from online learning. However, if you feel this resource would help your child, the link to this program is on the Clever website.
