As a Title I School wide program we have the exciting opportunity to offer all kindergarten students an additional two afternoons of small group instruction each week.
All kindergarteners attend class in the morning five days a week.
On Tuesday and Thursday afternoons the other half of each half stays for their small group experience. This has given us the opportunity to provide our children with many rich reading and writing experiences that we were not able to offer in a half-time program. It has been such a delight to see the growth that takes place when we are able to work with small groups of children with such wonderful support. Reading Recovery Reading Recovery is an 'early intervention' program for first grade students developed by New Zealand educator and psychologist, Dr. Marie M. Clay. The goal is to support struggling, beginning readers in using the strategies, or ways, good readers use to tackle and draw meaning from text.
