Our Impact scholars love to read! When our eager learners crack open the covers of a book and delve into the pages, entire worlds are opened up to them. From Tutankhamun鈥檚 temple, to the mountains of Mars, readers get to explore new vistas while their imaginations are activated and engaged. It鈥檚 no wonder that Impact scholars ranked in the top 3% for English Language Arts among similar schools in WA state. Reading and literacy is a critical part of our inclusive Impact curriculum!
At Impact, we use , an online library with downloadable books. Impact families can access this library for free at home via Impact鈥檚 account. Reading A-Z is a great resource that many Impact teachers use for their own guided reading small groups at school. It is sorted by levels and also has books that work on skills, such as sight word recognition, decodable words, and fluency.
