What is Reading Recovery?

Reading Recovery is a researched-based, short-term early intervention program, which provides intensive instruction for young readers who are at risk of failure during first grade.  Children who are among the lowest achievers in reading and writing are selected to receive 30 minutes of daily one-on-one instruction.  A specially trained teacher provides individually designed lessons which promote accelerated learning.  Each child is expected to make faster-than-average progress so that he or she can catch up with other children in the class.
