Currently a majority of our students are intensive in reading and our benchmark students are going nowhere. This year the Reading Intervention Team has begun a push in program four days a week. The students in K-4 have 20 minutes in which two team members enter the room at a preset time. Each member has some type of fluency passage to read with each child in the room, one on one. The team needs a variety of leveled passages in order to meet the needs of every child in the room. During this push in time the reading team reads with all students in the classroom. It takes about 20 minutes and does not disturb the learning going on in the room. This is our first year to add the push in to our intervention program and the first year to reach out to all students. Prior to this only the intensive students were pulled for 20 minutes of intervention. I have a prior purchase of one of these passage banks and it is not enough to go around. More students will benefit from them if we had more banks. I would also like to make a kit available to the fifth and sixth grade teachers for their classroom use since time does not allow intervention at their level. These fluency passage banks would be a huge help.
