Description, Abstract, or Artist's Statement
Through Augustana College's partnership with Longfellow Elementary School, I had the opportunity to engage in research regarding remedial reading strategies with second grade students. I investigated the effectiveness of close reading in the elementary school classroom. From my research, it was evident that close reading boosted comprehension as well as minimized the amount of visual errors that students made.
