Hello all,
I was a teacher for eight years and am now moving to the non-profit world. I will be in charge of a reading/family literacy center. One of our goals is to offer reading support/remediation with at-risk students in our neighborhood. I am in the process of researching intervention programs that we could use.
Specifically, I would like a program with strong research supporting its effectiveness, but that would be easy for volunteers to implement/use to work with the kids. The tutoring will be done at the school but using outside volunteers/help.
I looked into Reading Recovery but the training seems to be way to extensive for what we are doing.
Other programs I have looked into include: Reading Connection (Fountas and Pinnell), Corrective Reading, Reading Mastery, Read 180, and Fast ForWord.
Any advice you guys have would be very greatly appreciated!
Liz
