Reading Recovery Works!
"Reading Recovery helps struggling beginning readers and writers in the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom. The intervention requires on-going data collection for each and every child who has lessons. In the United States evaluation is conducted by the International Data Evaluation Center (IDEC) located at The Ohio State University. Results are consistent across 25 years and include more than 2 million Reading Recovery students. Because accountability is a key part of Reading Recovery, administrators receive annual reports at the teacher, school, and district level.
Reading Recovery is a thoroughly researched and proven early literacy intervention. It has also been reconstructed for children learning to read in Spanish (Descubriendo la Lectura) and French (Intervention Préventive en LectureÉcriture), and these interventions achieve parallel results for struggling readers. In fact, achievement gaps are greatly reduced or closed across varying racial and ethnic groups, socioeconomic groups, and for English language learners.
More than 100 research studies have documented Reading Recovery’s benefits for students and schools. For an online review of key studies see www.readingrecovery.org or clink on the links below for more information.
