Afternoon Suzy, from the rainy 'wilds' of Southern BC! Thank you for your compliment over on the Sp. Ed board. I would like to return the compliment by saying how lucky we are to have someone so seasoned and eperienced with reading intervention to help answer our questions as we seek ways to bring children forth as readers. I am always amazed at how early--in kindergarten and grade 1--children who are having reading difficulties see their whole educational experience as a black bottomless pit. It just breaks the heart doesn't it? I had a little blonde haired dumpling knock on the door frame of my LA/Resource Centre back in October--my door is always open--and I would with this little fellow's apraxic brother--and this little quavering voice asked me if he could talk to me in secret. So in he came, and whispered in my ear, that he could not read, and could I help him, but he did not want his buddies to know. So I have a wonderful, magical "lunch date" every day for twenty minutes and we munch and read, and then he bops out to play with his friends. He told his friends that I have been teaching for a very very long time, and really needed someone to help me organize my stuff--bless those little grade one minds--his friends believed him. Early reading intervention really is a "love affair for a lifetime" isn't it, Suzy?
