From The Classroom: Student Thoughts
I love Soar because it is fun. I have learned how to use strategies. Because of Soar I can clarify and read big words.

I like Soar because you get to do strategies. Most of all, I like to predict. Predict means to tell what will happen in the story before it is read. I like the question strategy because you get to ask questions.

I like Soar because I get to have fun. It's just like an extra recess. We do fun things like using strategies and reading chunks of text. My favorite strategy is summarizing.

Bobby, age 11

When I was in 3rd grade I was reading at a 2nd grade level. But when I started Soar to Success my reading shot up a grade. So if my reading shot up a grade, then so can other kids' scores around the U.S.

When I'm in reading group the strategies help me. Clarify helps me the most. First we read easy books. Then we went to harder books. I think it's great to have reading group. It helps me read even better.
Kassi, age 10

I can read better than at my old school. When I don't know a word I go to the end of the sentence, and if I still don't know a word I go to the words that I know and that's how I get better at reading.
