Reading Recovery in Region II Reading Recovery was first introduced into the Region II Migrant Education Program in the 1993-94 school year as part of a Program Improvement Project grant. Teachers from several school districts within Region II have been trained by a Reading Recovery Teacher Leader employed by Butte County Office of Education. An additional Teacher Leader has been trained and the program has been extended to include Modoc and Siskiyou counties. Each Teacher Leader may train up to twelve district teachers per year. Reading Recovery Teachers Reading Recovery teachers in training participate in a year-long training program that includes observation and assessment, development of individual lessons, and supervized teaching.
Teachers work individually each day with four students at the school site.
Reading Recovery serves the lowest achieving children. Reading Recovery is effective with diverse populations. Children develop a self-extending system of learning to read and write. Reading Recovery teachers serve children as part of their training. Reading Recovery provides continuous professional support for teachers.
