I absolutely agree that the classroom teacher needs to provide the first string
of reading instruction and intervention. But she is only one person and there
is only so much that one person can do effectively when faced with mulitple
reading levels.
Amy I am totally with you and
I believe my bias will ooze out into this post ... I really mean no
disrespect... I,too, am frustrated.
I worked in a private alternative school where specialists came into the
classroom and provided intervention that would benefit the entire class but was
inspired by the needs of our spe

One weakness in my school's intervention program is lack of
communication between regular teacher and interventionist. We are all

The only thing I really know for sure is that the more we splinter things,
the more splintered they become!! And yes, I meant that sentence to be
ridiculous: that's how this whole merry-go-round has sped up and is throwing
us all off as it merrily speeds around and around getting nowhere.

In a perfect world, there would be no need for a quick fill in the
blanks type of memo because there would be time built into the days and
weeks for teachers to meet collaboratively to discuss strategies for
groups of and individual students. :-)

Well, you know. we have to do everything we can to get 125% of our
students reading above grade level by grade two while making sure they
know all the state capitals and multiplication tables through the 12s,
and that they can identify the elements on the periodic table which can
be use
Thank you...this made me smile (:

I have been reading this and the departmentalization thread with interest. The
multiple perspectives have been helpful to me since, for the first time in 13
years...my reader's workshop is a wreck due to pullouts. The merry-go-round

Well, here's where I feel like we are blind-sided by the everyone/noone,
all/nothing, in/out frame of mind. How often do you hear of RtI being a
child served by a professional who tailors an instructional plan to her
needs? No; what we hear about our programs! And so we get the all or
nothing.
Hi Kare,
There is such a document! I got it from the Choice Literacy Site. I cannot
remember the name of the document but if you do a search on the site itself you
may be able to find it. If I can track mine down in the next day or two I'll
send more information. The idea is that the communi

I agree that communication with the classroom teacher is essential and that was
always a difficulty even with Reading Recovery. We invented/created different
forms yet never seemed to hit on the one that worked, and I admit I wasn't

EXCELLENT idea! We are severely understaffed in our special ed. department
this year. They are stretched so thin, and we have NO time to talk with the
specialists that work in our rooms (we are full inclusion, or are supposed
to be!).
Thanks for the idea.
