I am assuming Dorn meant- things like- difficulty focusing, ADHD, lack of home support, a passive learning style- - I'm sure others could come up with issues as well...
We (my Title 1 Program) would work and work with these students and get them up to grade level (as assessed by the Woodcock-Johnson, Benchmark texts etc,). Then we would send them home for the summer- and often for these kids- the summer loss was huge. I am also a Reading Recovery Teacher- so perhaps- while they assessed at grade level- they had not truly developed a self extending system....- it's almost as if you have to go beyond just teaching them to read- and you really have to look at ways to assist students to become self regulated learners.
