What Is LGL Comprehension Edge?
What Makes It Unique:
LGL Comprehension Edge is one online differentiated instructional product within the LGL Edge Series which teaches advanced understanding of textbooks and literature at the 5th to 9th grade reading levels. Depending on the level of comprehension of the secondary or adult student as determined by DORA, he or she may be placed into different levels of LGL Comprehension Edge. This differentiation allows students to skip material they have already mastered while still targeting the two crucial areas of reading comprehension for this level: vocabulary and comprehension strategies.
It takes a certain kind of program to show fast, proven results with secondary and adult students. LGL Comprehension Edge does just that through high-interest materials, songs, video, and games, with an emphasis on young adult/teenage culture to engage secondary and adult students and encourage them in the classroom. LGL Comprehension Edge doesn’t offer bland instruction and drill-and-kill practice but instead provides exciting, interactive lessons, detailed stepby-step feedback on student practice, and a motivation system that encourages students to turn failure into success!
How It Works Let’s Go Learn’s Diagnostic Online Reading Assessment (DORA) serves as the foundation for LGL Comprehension Edge. DORA diagnostically assesses students in seven subskills of reading, adapting to students as they respond to each question in the online program. Immediately after the assessment, students who qualify for instruction are automatically transitioned into powerful online reading lessons addressing only the skills that each student requires. With the LGL Edge Series, students complete only the lessons they need without wasting time on materials they have already mastered. This is very important for secondary and adult students who are already struggling. “I recently began using LGL Comprehension Edge with my fourth to sixth graders. I was so impressed with it for many reasons. First, the lessons are well thought out. They are sequenced in a way that makes sense developmentally, following along with a typical school curriculum. Second, the material is presented in a lively and interesting way. Kids are so often ‘turned off’ to lessons. With LGL Comprehension Edge, they can’t wait to get started. Finally, as their teacher, LGL Comprehension Edge allows me to see exactly what level each child is up to, and is thus easy to incorporate into our own curriculum. At our center, we work towards helping kids not only read at grade level, but towards helping them develop a love of reading. LGL Comprehension Edge helps us accomplish our goals. I highly recommend it!!” - Laura Reisler, Director, Park Slope Communication
