This
program was created to ensure a student’s
success on the science portion of the Texas Assessment of
Knowledge and Skills
exam. This program is geared to the specific needs of each individual
student.
We
utilize a number of resources, including previously released
TAKS exam questions, to “diagnose” a student’s
weaknesses and strengths. We have also narrowed down the number
of research resources a student can use, to focus on those that
we have found most effective. Our program uses various vocabulary
lists, notes, and activities, as well as other time management
and planning materials so as to allow the student to become self-aware
and self-sufficient. This differentiated instruction addresses
the students’ individual learning styles.
As
a result of our program and through our guidance, the students’ studies
become TAKS-specific, TEKS-specific, self-paced, self-assessable,
and self-motivational.
