We are excited to offer reading tutoring this summer for kids with Down syndrome going into kindergarten through third grade for the 2021-2022 school year. We plan to expand and offer to more ages in the future but for our first session, we are offering the ages above. There are five spots available for this first session so if you want a spot do not wait! Here are the details:
Who: Kids with Down syndrome going into kindergarten through third grade for the 2021-2022 school year
What: Tutoring in reading
Where: Our New EIDS Office- 1675 S Woodruff, Idaho Falls
When: 6-week session, Tuesdays and Thursdays the weeks of June 14th, June 21st, June 28th, July 12th, July 19th, July 26th, Sessions are 30-45 min long, Sessions start at 9:00 am, 9:45 am, and 10:30 am
Why: We know that long breaks make it hard for our kids with Down syndrome to retain all of their knowledge from the previous school year. We want to help bridge that gap. We will be using research-based reading formats from the Enhanced Core Reading Instruction developed out of the University of Oregon. Here is a link to learn more about the program/formats: https://ctlmarketplace.uoregon.edu/product/enhanced-core-reading-instruction
Cost: $240 per child (must be a registered member of EIDS to be enrolled in the tutoring program)...we will contact you for payment once we get your registration
More Info: It will be required that the parents do about 15-20 min of reading practice with their child two other days in the week. We will give you the materials for practice and it will be very clearly laid out for everyone,
If you have any questions please reach out to Mary Murray at 208-520-9900
