Reading is Thinking

pReading is Thinking is a new course that FRC will be piloting in the 2011-12 school year.  Students will be able to receive up to three credits in this course, which is designed to help them develop the necessary attitudes, knowledge, skills and strategies to be successful in their learning. 

The course focuses on three "Big Ideas":
1 - Thinking about self
2 - Thinking about text
3 - Thinking about the world

FRC will be implementing the course in three ways:
1 - Full Credit Option Course
2 - Combined with Credit Program Top-Up
3 - A year long intensive RIT course for students needing additional reading support
