General Information about Title 1 Reading
· The Title I/Reading Support program exists to assist students in acquiring strong, basic reading skills, to have a positive experience with reading and ultimately to become independent readers.
· The Reading Specialist is a teacher who provides direct reading instruction to eligible students in a small group setting.
· Scientifically based research is the foundation for the systematic interventions that are used. The Five Big Ideas (phonemic awareness, phonics, fluency, comprehension and vocabulary) are integrated throughout the Reading Support Program.
· Students who may receive reading support are identified based on their performance on reading screening tests throughout their elementary school experience. Students who receive reading support qualify based on test scores, their classroom teacher’s recommendation, the reading specialist’s recommendation and the parent/guardian’s written permission.
If you have questions or concerns about your child and reading, you can direct them to me either through email or by phone.
