Enhance Multilingual Student Summer Learning with Core5
Prevent Summer Learning Loss for Multilingual Students
Summer break can lead to significant learning setbacks, particularly for multilingual students. Research shows that students can lose up to 30% of their school-year reading gains during the summer, making it essential to provide structured literacy support.
Understanding the Impact
Many multilingual learners face challenges in maintaining literacy progress over the summer. Data from the National Center for Education Statistics indicates that 68% of multilingual fourth graders score below reading proficiency levels. Without continued practice, these students may struggle to keep up when the new school year begins.
How Core5 Supports Summer Learning
Lexia® Core5® Reading is designed to help multilingual students build and retain literacy skills through a structured, research-based approach. Studies have shown that students who used Core5 in summer programs made reading gains four times higher than their peers. In Waterford School District, 82% of students who engaged with Core5 consistently reached grade-level proficiency by the end of the year.
Key Benefits for Students and Educators
Personalized lessons that adapt to individual learning needs
Real-time progress monitoring to inform instruction
Accessibility at home to encourage continued learning
Providing structured literacy support over the summer can help multilingual students maintain progress and start the school year with confidence.
