Tutoring at DPS involves students participating in three small group sessions each week to improve their reading skills.

During these sessions students play games and activities to identify different sounds and spellings from their classroom Sounds Write program.

Students work on their guided reading book or decodable to improve their reading strategies, for example solving words, self-correcting errors and understanding what they have read.

They also work towards individual reading goals that are set by the classroom teacher or tutor during one-on-one conferences.
