Community Bike Works

Reading & Homework Program

Any participant (ages 9-17) new or old, may receive reading help two to three times a week. Kids who need help are teamed with a college student to work on their reading skills. Each reader takes a reading assessment test at the start and at the end of each three month program.

Objectives:

Community Bike Works' programs require performance measurements.

All the children participating in the Reading & Homework Program will:

1) Take a Reading Test at the beginning and end of the three month program

a) 40 % of the children will show an increase in reading level of at

least one grade

2) Produce a writing project that will demonstrate the use of proper sentence structure and grammar

3) Spend at least 50% of their time on reading development.

This year 57 kids participated in two, 3 month reading programs!!

28% increased one grade level
