Reading Recovery is a short-term, early literacy intervention, which provides an opportunity for students in Year 1 who have not yet established effective reading and writing processes. Students receive a series of daily, individual, thirty minute Reading Recovery lessons from a specially trained teacher in addition to the regular classroom reading and writing program. The Intervention builds on students’ strengths, encouraging success and independence, strengthens self esteem and students’ natural desire to learn. Students continue until they have developed strategies that will allow them to participate in the reading and writing activities in their classroom, usually between twelve to twenty weeks.
