In grade 3-5 we are excited to be using a new program called Lexia® Core5® Reading. It is a fun computer-based program that has helped millions of students. The activities in Core5 support and build on our classroom curriculum and focus on developing reading skills in six areas: phonological awareness, phonics, structural analysis, fluency, vocabulary, and comprehension.
Here’s how Lexia Core5 Reading works:
- Your child begins Core5 at a starting point that fits his or her needs and works in online activities throughout the week.
- Online activities include direct instruction and feedback as your child learns new skills.
- Progress and performance in the program is reported so teachers can provide help when needed.
- Paper-and-pencil activities are also used for practice and may be done in school or brought home.
- Achievement certificates may be sent home to celebrate success and to show progress in the program.
Lexia® Core5® Reading can be used at home for extra practice.

It is important that your child works without any help while using Core5. All of the work your child does at home is recorded and reported to school. This way, we can see when help is needed and provide additional instruction at school.
