Mirrors & Windows Offers Support for Advanced Students



Universities and employers have found that many incoming students and entry-level employees lack the reading and writing skills needed to succeed in their new endeavors. Some blame this problem on a lack of rigor in the language arts programs at the high school level. Studies show that most students want to be challenged to gain the high-level skills that will help them succeed in college and in the workplace. This is especially true for advanced students.

EMC’s Differentiated Instruction for Advanced Students provides multiple opportunities to engage students and to teach them the skills necessary to excel in college-level, literature-based reading, thinking, discussion, and writing tasks. This supplement offfers students opportunities to hone their reading, writing, and research skills as they explore the rich world of literature and beyond. The activities are not busywork, but meaningful exercises of the mind that build skills students will need as they progress through college and careers. The assignments help students become deep thinkers, critical readers, and independent problem-solvers. As they are challenged to meet higher expectations, they will come closer to realizing their ever-expanding potential.

For more differentiated instruction for your students, EMC also offers Differentiated Instruction for Developing Readers and Differentiated Instruction English Language Learners.
