hi Grand Prairie Families my name is Lindsey attanasio I am a reading recovery teacher here at Grand Prairie this is my fifth year at Grand Prairie on the past four years I have been a reading specialist small groups from kindergarten to 2nd grade and prior to that I actually told Chelsea I talked fourth grade there for four years among some other work with primary grades in other districts throughout my career this is my first recovery which means that I am taking additional classes to learn the program and I also have the awesome perk of having a teacher that I can rely on to get more information to help me make sure I teacher that I throughout my career I worked alongside of some of our other reading recovery teachers at Grand Prairie and their knowledge about reading and the information that they know about their students from working with them so close and the training has always impressed me beyond words so I'm very very excited and I feel very very fortunate to get to know learn this program this year and get to work with your so I'm very excited that they get to be my first recovery is here the reading recovery is a little bit different from maybe a traditional Reed support group that you might be used to in the past a reading support group works with a small group of usually they read it the same level or have the same reading and it is focus to the needs of that group recovery is a little bit more intense of an intervention rather than working with a small group in a collective group it really focuses on one child it's a program design for 1st graders only on and it is a one-on-one 30-minute intervention it's done daily 5 days a week and usually the students were doing really really well in the program might be able and then they catch up with their peers in the classroom they might be able to get on the program sooner but those students that need a little bit more I need to get where they need to be found that extra buffer after the 20 weeks have been completed students are done with the first what we called around everywhere covered and that point we assess other the other person into the program for the remainder of the school year the progress that teachers can have the training and trying to sit with them one-on-one is remarkable and Men student most students catch up to grade level reading abilities within their first round of reading recovery and if it's just a really great program and a lot of the students. the cast of In order to place students in the reading recovery programs we give a battery of Assessments to them they're actually six different Thug test in the assessment is there any kind of look at the student scores across the top and decide which students would be the most which which Dunes would benefit the most from the intervention of reading recovery the first one is a letter identification when asked to name our case and lowercase letters something they've seen a bunch of times before another one is there asked to recite word list in their twenties somebody words that they know from kindergarten some might be just kind of see how many that they can identify there's a concept about print test where it's kind of an odd test but it kind of fun for the students because they're kind of do they know what do they know where you start reading to they know which direction you read left to right do they know when to go to the next line of text do they understand the difference between a letter in a word can they look close play at words and determine if there are errors spelling errors within the work and all those kind of things just to see where the students might have holes that we need to work on it during the program we also Cavallari cast and vocabulary test just asked us to destroy any worse that they know we're trying to see what kind of draining base they have so they might write their name or family members name siblings names that some of them are sight words color word anything that they know just trying to kind of get a base that what were they if they have coming into the program is there any recording sounds in words been dictated sentences actually two sentences and we read it to the students word by word and we asked them to try to ride we're trying to see what kind of deal they have on their case letters do they have trouble forming some letters we are seeing if they are walking out the words to try to help themselves right to get an idea of where we can help them and then we also do a text level which is just trying to see which level of book they can read without it being too hard we want to see where they're easy book is with books are hard for them and I'm just right Construction during the program from there we assess them we work with Administration and with the other reading recovery teachers in our teacher leader in the reading recovery program and determine the best cast for the program for that first round so like I said earlier during the program each student that has been selected get the half an hour lesson each school day for 12 to 20 weeks with a reading recovery teacher not everybody can teacher you do have to have additional training with that and we are just trying to get those reading students to read and write with grade level expectations we are in constant contact with the classroom teacher to see how are you are doing we are working together closely with the classroom teacher and when the teacher is ready to release that student from Reading recovery and we are confident that that student can leave the program and maintain those still in the classroom we released them the program in letting students enter so everybody can benefit from it Duran Duran recovery lesson there's a bit of a framework that each lesson will follow as your child progresses with their reading those components might look a little bit different within but all of kind of have the same structure so the first part is just rereading familiar box so they're reading books that they read before they're able to work on his fluency they're able to build their confidence as they're really after that I as a picture of the recovery take a Running Records this is on the book that we did the previous day where I'd given them a little teaching point and I'm trying to see if they can kind of held on to that new skill that I taught them the day before it gives me as a t a lot of information so that I am able to see where I need to take my instruction it also gives me an idea like our the book getting too easy for the student are we ready to push on to her to stay where we are and it gives me a lot of information and gives us a lot of Records to them follow that up with some letter and word work on at the very basic level it might be just English Sheen letters from from bees and deep raps different things at a higher reading level we might work on breaking long words apart so that we can read them in in bigger chunks and it's helped us then apply those. summer reading in text we also are going to write a story every day and the students get to think of their story they have their own writing journal and we will use the words to work on those together will be independently work on tricky words together and through that we will work on things like space in between words letter formation and just different strategies that students can use when they're writing between writing and reading what they're doing in their writing will also help them as their reading there's also the cut up sentence the sentence that they write in their journals each day I will take and then I will write it on a sin set alarm strip of paper and then we will work we will take each individual word apart we'll read it together and the students will put the sentence back together an order and read it to me all right and that sentence will come home from work which will get you in a second after all of that we will do a new book will talk about the books to cancel read the book and they'll get to read it by themselves and at the end of the last so there's a lot of things and we're pretty tight with a 30 minute timer sniper homework the students will have a blue bag so they'll have their regular colored bag from their classroom Community teacher with their guided reading books teacher so they might have a purple book that should be pretty easy because we've already read them together during school so this is a good opportunity let them read their books to you improve their fluency work on expression and phrasing so just something to enjoy reading so also be a little homework log so if you could please sign that nightly let me know that you did do your reading at home. happy wonderful additionally with that kind of sentence that I said earlier so when it cut up their sentence I will write their sentence on an envelope and send it home with you so that you can see what the sentence is supposed to be like child might need you to read the sentence to them again just so that they remember what it is and your child can open up that envelope and take out all the pieces and put it back in the correct order they might need to use the envelope to help them if they don't you tell you the envelope okay. Has put together the sentence ask them to check it against the sentence make sure it's correct have him read it to you okay now these are supposed to be read in isolation Okay we want to read it as a complete sentence that has meaning we're not wanting them to do it by word by word okay so he can't read the word when's for example in our sentence last night Fall Fest with my family if they don't know the word went by itself that's okay but if they can read last night I think about that word went from the meaning of the sentence that's what we want them to do okay so I'm so excited to get to know you Andrew child this year please feel free to email me I will be contacting all my parents regularly with update but don't hesitate to contact me via email or School telephone if you ever need anything or have any questions and I'm very excited your child this year thank you
