These are some of the materials I have had good results with in my Title I Reading Intervention work" Phonemic Awareness in Young Children (from Marilyn Adams, this is a regular education curriculum but I use it for intervention and have never had it not work, even with kids with diagnosed phonological deficits. I use The Stieglitz Assessment of Phonemic Awareness for initiall diagnostic assessment and for kids that still struggling with decoding after intervention, I use the Phonological Awareness Test (PAT) Interactive Strategies Approach (from Scanlon and Vellutino of the famouse 1st Grade studies. This is not a commercially available program but an approach to teaching struggling readers. I love it. One of their messages is that at least 1/2 of all intervention time should contain student interaction with connected text.) Read Naturally (for phonics, vocabulary, comprehension and fluency: a little dry the my students seem to like the stories and it's all non-fiction so the kids who read the least are, at least, getting interaction with content area text.) Visualizing and Verbalizing (and Talkies, both from Lindamood Bell) for comprehension and vocabulary: This is for the profoundly week in comp and vocab. I use it when I'm not reaching them with less intense comprehension instruction Hope this helps. Cathy Title I Reading upstate NY In a message dated 10/13/2008 11:34:06 A.M.

I am in the market for intervention reading programs. I have students from K-6 throughout the week two to four times for a half an hour. I can purchase different products to fit my needs. I was wondering if anyone has an opinion on ones they love and ones they hate. I have looked into Reading Recovery and others similar to it.
