Enhancing the Quality of Reading Intervention

My Students

The kindergarten students that I will be working with require a little extra support with their reading skills. I help to supplement what their classroom teacher is providing by incorporating small group instruction that focuses on letter recognition and sounds, phonics and phonemic awareness, decoding, fluency and comprehension. What makes my classroom exciting is that my students are excited to learn and their faces light up when they learn something new. My students are wanting to learn to read they just need some help along the way.

My Project

I need to attend a workshop to learn an effective, evidence based instructional approach for teaching students with reading deficits. The Orton Gillingham systems are well-known, researched and have a record of successful instructional interactions with students with dyslexia and other reading disabilities. Receiving training in implementing their phonological awareness lessons will provide my students real experiences with a proven approach and allow me to deliver it to anyone in need at our school. Besides intense, explicit instruction in how to administer the program's instructional approaches, materials are provided for implementing the drill and practice required for success. My students will receive systematic, explicit, rigorous instruction in conjunction with activities that promote literacy skill development. For many kids reading is a mystery and a struggle. I believe that I can become a provider of valuable instruction that can bridge gaps and help overcome barriers.
