Reading Foundations, Advanced
Saturdays 4:00-5:00pm
Reading Foundations: Advanced prepares students for university-level reading and lifelong learning by developing advanced comprehension, analytical reading, source evaluation, and synthesis skills. Students engage with complex academic, informational, and non-fiction texts while learning to evaluate arguments, assess credibility, identify rhetorical techniques, and synthesize ideas across multiple sources. Through structured reading experiences, independent inquiry, and teacher feedback, students develop the confidence and critical reading skills required for post-secondary education and professional success.
