Connect with Kids is a program that targets the development of core character values in students, specifically focusing on behavior, knowledge, attitudes, and values.
New Chance is a program that aims to improve the education, parenting, life skills, and employment prospects of young welfare mothers. The program services have two phases. In the first phase, participants receive adult basic education, GED preparation, and pre-employment skills training, as well as life skills training, including health education, family planning, parenting education, and pediatric health services. Participants attend classes five days a week for six hours a day. After five months (or after they receive their GED certificates), participants enter the second phase of New Chance, where they receive occupational skills training, participate in internships, and receive job placement assistance. Throughout their time in the program, participants have access to free child care and a case manager who monitors and assists their progress.
Reading Apprenticeship® is a program that targets improving student outcomes in literacy, science achievement, and grade point average. The program uses instructional strategies to help students build comprehension skills, overcome difficulties with reading, interact more deeply with text, gain interest in reading, and improve their confidence in reading. Teachers model comprehension strategies and help students practice these strategies, mentoring students in reasoning and problem-solving skills to handle more complex reading tasks. The program includes professional development for teachers, which can be delivered online or in-person, and provides teachers with a copy of the developer's e-book, Reading for Understanding.
The educational program/intervention/tool/strategy is not explicitly stated in the document, but it involves the use of live versus audio-recorded narrative stimuli to assess children's narrative comprehension and retell quality.
The experimental intervention is a 27-lesson program that targets sixth-grade students with low fraction skills, focusing on the number line representation of fractions and incorporating cognitive learning strategies to improve learning and retention. The intervention includes explicit instruction, representational gestures, dual coding, spaced and interleaved practice, and feedback. The lessons are structured around a color run theme, where students practice counting aloud fractions of like denominators along the number line, and engage in games and activities to develop their understanding of fraction concepts, including magnitude judgments and equivalencies.
Career and Technical Education (CTE) programs are broadly defined as programs that offer high school courses aligned to specific career fields and that provide students with the academic and technical skills to succeed in college or the workforce.
Lessons in Character is a curriculum that aims to teach character education to students. The program consists of 24 lessons at each grade level, using a 'theme of the week' approach with stories, activities, daily and weekly writing assignments, and a class project. Teachers introduce the week's concept, read stories portraying that value in action, and engage students in targeted activities. Materials for students are available in English or Spanish, and the developer provides teaching resources such as binders with strategies, skills, suggestions, and techniques for teaching Lessons in Character.

Scholastic READ 180 is a reading intervention program intended to improve student performance in reading and language arts, specifically targeting students who are at risk of falling behind their peers. The program is designed for students in grades 4-8 and is typically implemented in a school setting. The program's content and implementation details are not explicitly stated in the document, but it is mentioned that the program is one of several reading interventions used by Community School District 23 to improve student performance.
Teach to One: Math (TtO) is a blended learning intervention that targets middle school mathematics. TtO redesigns classroom instruction to match students with the specific content that best supports their academic growth. The program uses a 'skills map' to outline the skills students must master and their dependencies, and each student's individual learning profile is generated from a baseline assessment and updated frequently based on student performance. Students are physically reorganized into one large room containing multiple teachers and students from different classes simultaneously, and they meet in their Math advisory (Ma) sections to take a short, multiple-choice 'exit ticket' to determine their mastery of that day's content.
