SEM-R

The Schoolwide Enrichment Model-Reading (SEM-R) is an enrichment-based reading program that seeks to increase reading achievement for all students while also addressing the pressing needs of talented readers.

SEM-R Goals :

1. to increase student enjoyment of reading,
2. to encourage students to pursue independent reading at appropriately challenging levels, and
3. to improve reading fluency and comprehension for all students.

How do you feel about the training at Alps Networking? Do you have any suggestion or ideas that you have used to make SEM-R successful in the classroom?
