Hear From a Peer: Strategies To Support Middle School Struggling Readers

Lexia® PowerUp Literacy® is crafted to support middle school educators in meeting the varied needs of striving readers with ease and efficiency. This comprehensive program takes the guesswork out of differentiation, offering built-in Assessment Without Testing® and fully scripted Lexia Skill Builders® lessons. In just a few minutes, educators can access real-time data, identify which students need targeted support, and deliver skill-specific interventions—all without extensive preparation.

PowerUp makes lesson planning simpler while fostering an engaging, inclusive learning environment. Teachers can seamlessly manage different instructional groups, lead targeted small-group lessons, or have students work independently with printed Skill Builders. This creates a blended learning classroom where students can interact with content that captures their interest, including texts from both classic and contemporary authors like Malala Yousafzai and Sandra Cisneros.

One standout feature of PowerUp is its embedded assessment, which tracks student progress without the need for additional testing. This ensures educators can adjust their instruction dynamically, helping students stay on track toward meeting their grade-level literacy goals. Ideal for tiered interventions or everyday classroom integration, PowerUp empowers teachers, paraprofessionals, and support staff, even if they don’t have expertise in foundational literacy.
