His book does just that. Great research information in his book.

If we want them to close the gap and catch up to their peers they should be reading even more than that. (He was talking about RtI so maybe his new book on RtI would have more information about that.)

Now I'm wondering about when my middle school starts RtI. I think that will happen next fall. I have read that students who are two, three, or four years behind in their reading level by middle school need an additional 90 hours of reading time??? instruction??? every day. Can anyone point me to something authoritative that asserts this? It seems as if we're going to go to half measures, and students who need additional help with get maybe 45 minutes a couple of times a week. I fear that RtI will not be successful at my school because we will not put the time into additional support for students. Thanks for any information you can give me.
