Dear Parents/Guardians:

Your child has been given access to Lexia Reading Core5.  This is a dynamic computer program to assist in the development of reading skills.

This program:

• Develops fundamental literacy skills in phonological awareness, phonics, structural analysis, fluency, vocabulary, and comprehension
• Personalizes learning by selecting activities based on a student’s individualized level and needs

• Provides scaffolding, corrective feedback, and direct instruction when needed

Success of this program requires frequent use for short periods of time (10-20 minute sessions).  We ask for your support in ensuring that your child utilizes the program at least three times a week in order to benefit from the potential gains this program has to offer.

Lexia is available as a free app.  If you are using a computer, visit www.lexiacore5.com.  Choose Core5 from the pull-down menu. You will need to use my email address the first time you access the site sgoodstein@npsdnj.org. Your child’s login card is attached.

Please contact me if you need assistance.

Sincerely,

Samantha Goodstein

Reading Specialist
