[MOSAIC] early reading interventions

[demillereed at aol.com]

Barb,

I am a K-1, Title I reading teacher in upstate NY.? We use a variety of interventions depending on the needs of the student.? We, as a school, decided to not buy into a scripted intervention program because we felt a financial investment like that would make us feel as if we had to use it with all students receiving reading intervention and we might not be as sensitive to individual needs. 


Phonemic Awareness in Young Children (PA)
Bridge to Vocabulary (Vocabulary)
Visualizing and Verbalizing (Comprehension)
Read Naturally (fluency)
Scholastic, Continental and/or Wright Group Phonics (Phonics)

One of our special ed. teachers also has used Wilson Fundations as a supplement to our reading series support materials and has had good success with it. 

Hope this helps.

This request is off the topic of comprehension and Mosiac.  If anyone has any 
information or feedback for me, please respond to me off the list.

I am chairing a district committee that will be reviewing various early 
intervention reading programs.  Currently we use Reading Recovery, but may be 
losing the program in a few years due to staffing issues.  The committee will be 
looking into options in case we have to make a change.  I wondering if anyone 
has used RR in the past and for whatever reason, made a switch.  What did you 
switch to?  What issues came up as a result of the switch?  How is the new 
direction working for your teachers and students.

Thank you for your help and expertise!
