Leveled Literacy Intervention

The other have of my day is spent with small, guided reading groups. I implement these groups using the following program. I can't speak highly enough about this program. Ever since our school began implementing this program, our reading data has improved tremendously!  We are getting great results from it! Leveled Literacy Intervention is a daily, 30 minute, small-group literacy intervention program designed by Fountas and Pinnell. It is designed for the lowest achieving students at their grade level. Through systematically designed lessons and original, engaging leveled books,LLI supports learning in both reading and writing, helps students expand their knowledge of language and words and how they work. The goal of LLI is to bring students to grade level achievement in reading.  The lessons follow a two day format where students will read books, work on phonics lessons, and write about what they read.  Here's a link to a great post with wonderful resources from LLI!!!! http://k-5literacyconnections.weebly.com/literacy-intervention.html
