FastForWard - A new After School program is offered at Christ The King!
Christ the King Lutheran School periodically offers a summer session or an after school reading program that uses the Fast ForWord Computer Technology . This unique program is scientifically designed to use computer technology to improve reading skills in phonics, word recognition, vocabulary, comprehension, and reading fluency. It uses cognitive exercises to improve cognitive memory, attention span, sequencing, and processing rate. Skill development in these areas produces better readers who have greater success in the classroom. The program is especially beneficial to students with LD and ADD/ADHD.
Parents of children who have already participated in the program have stated how it has helped their child feel more confident with reading independently, and completing homework by themselves. One parent said she noticed how much her child's word recognition skills had improved, and how much better he remembered directions and class instruction. In addition, our staff has been very pleased with the excellent progress CTK students have made using this technology in our own PLUS and Discoveries classes. Diagnostic Testing is done before the program begins, and after completion to evaluate student progress
FastForword consists of one hour sessions beginning at 3:30, five days a week for a six week period. Summer sessions typically begin at 9am or 10am.
