BIO


I am a second year student at Florida State University. I was born and raised in Miami, FL. I took interest in this research project because I have always wanted to work/help children in any capacity. Being bilingual myself, I especially took interest in advocating and helping children that may need the extra help and contribute to research being done to improve quality of life. In my professional career I hope to work with children. I am interesting in careers like Speech language pathology, behavioral analysts, and/or therapy. I look forward to continuing my academic career and make strides in research.

Abstract


MAR-P aims to improve literacy instructions for MLs with and at risk for disabilities. Furthermore, improves engagement in literacy instructions for MLs with
and at risk for disabilities. This study is aimed for elementary school classrooms (3rd-5th grade) which were inclusive of children from diverse abilities and linguistic backgrounds. We will be implementing adaptive practices and online modules to elementary students and recording their engagement, minutes of ELA instruction, number of lessons, modules, and discussions completed, and how much time was spent on each lesson. Overall, we aspire to observe an improvement in reading comprehension and general vocabulary
