We are now Capti ReadBasix!
We are excited for this rebranding. Capti ReadBasix is the only diagnostic reading assessment designed for secondary students! Stay tuned for more information about secondary literacy from Capti!
We want students to play around with language.
We are not necessarily looking for perfection.
We are looking for that gradual release of responsibility as students begin to feel more empowered and confident to identify those various language features. 💡

Did you know?🧐
Syntax refers to the formation of sentences and their associated grammar rules. Adolescent students need to be able to understand why an adjective comes before a noun. This helps with their understanding of how text is constructed.

Semantics is the study of the meaning of words and sentences. For example “the triangle is in the circle” is different than “the circle is in the triangle”. Students must be able to construct meaning of words within sentences.

Understanding language involves multi-level processing.
The subsequent step require understanding at the word level in order to successfully build comprehension at the final and complete text level.

🧠Odd Word Out 🧠
As middle school instructors, select words that students have been working on within the texts. Students can create “odd word out” exercises and challenge others to determine which one doesn’t belong.

The ABCs of Cognitive Flexibility! 🧠🎶
Cognitive flexibility is vital for middle schoolers. The model emphasizes a student's ability to simultaneously attend to a word's written, sound, and semantic form while reading.

During the adolescent and middle school years, prioritize introducing and comprehending Tier 2 words within diverse contexts. They have varied meanings in different situations and need to be taught explicitly.
