Abstract
Reading Recovery is a research-‐based early literacy intervention implemented in schools to provide intensive individual literacy instruction to first grade students having the greatest difficulty learning to read and write. The goal of the intervention is to accelerate students’ progress to on-‐grade level competency in 12 to 20 weeks. Reading Recovery also serves as a response to intervention (RtI) program for a small number of children who may need specialized longer-‐term assistance.
