  4. M.O.R.E. Details • At Celina Primary, we are using it to help our “at-risk” kids who have not been identified as having a disability, but are not succeeding in reading. We are now also offering continued support to those kids who have been identified as having a learning disability. • It’s school wide – the intervention follows the child as needed while at CPS. We hope to expand this year to CES.

Try to keep the labels on these as they will be reused. • Please do not write on the instruction sheets that will be with the lesson plans and ignore any writing from past mentors. We try to reuse these.

  27. Following the lesson plans… • Some lessons are 3-day lessons, some are 5-day lessons. • You will only do one day’s lesson. The day of the week does not matter. (ex. if you come in on Monday and someone has completed days 1 and 2, you should complete day 3.) • If you finish early, you can review any of the materials in the folder or you may play a game or an activity from the supply shelves.

  28. Following the lesson plans… You are welcome to any of these games. Please just put them back in the same place when you are done. If you have extra time, feel free to make some books up for the lessons. The instructions on how to make a book are in the tubs.

  29. Following the lesson plans… • When a student finishes a lesson, celebrate! • Fill in a stamp on the chart. • Place the folder in the “Needs Attention” Crate. When the chart is filled, place it in the student’s folder, put it in the “Needs Attention” crate, and let the child pick from the Treasure Box.

  30. Following the lesson plans… Recording comments on the lesson plan: • Document if you do not finish a lesson. • Write down anything you think the next day’s mentor might need to know. • Document anything that the coordinator should know (ex. something is wrong with a lesson or materials). • Do NOT document private information about the student. Let the coordinator know right away if something needs to be addressed with the student.

  31. Following the lesson plans… Stickers and Awards Celebrate whenever it is needed by giving stickers or awards! The “Mentor” cabinet is a place for you to keep your coat or other belongings while mentoring. The top shelf is also for you.

  32. Following the lesson plans… Getting to know you… • Spend some time the first session that you do with your child getting to know each other. • A worksheet will be provided for you to fill out together or you can bring your own activity if you would like. • The rest of the session will be used working on PALS or a Fluency read. You may also play a game if there is still time.

  33.
