Description: "Successful early literacy intervention must be designed for individuals and delivered by trained teachers in the first two years of school."

"Literacy Lessons: Designed for Individuals," in two parts, provides administrators and specially-trained teachers with guidance for managing the early literacy intervention called Reading Recovery. It answers the questions of Why?, When? and How? individual literacy lessons for young children at risk can be highly successful.

Familiar research on oral language development and current or newer research related to brain functioning and cognitive development are woven into discussions, and the frequent suggestions of additional reading are extremely helpful.

I think this book will help us to train our teachers to think carefully about childrens instructional needs and to base their instruction on careful observations of learners. The discussions will also reinforce the importance of using all procedures in a judicious manner.
