Understanding the Needs of Struggling Readers
Many secondary students face significant challenges in reading and writing, often due to a lack of foundational skills. Educators like Sherry Sousa and Julie Brown recognize that emotional and academic struggles are interconnected, with students sometimes acting out in class because they cannot read. This realization led to a focus on creating an inclusive environment where all students feel valued and supported in their learning journey. Successful interventions at the secondary level require acknowledging these challenges and addressing both academic and emotional needs collaboratively.
