This study investigated the effectiveness of a supplemental early reading intervention package on the segmentation, blending and oral reading fluency skills of 23 urban first-grade students, including English Language Learners (ELLs), who continued to be at reading risk after receiving intensive phonological awareness training the previous year in kindergarten (i.e., ERI-Treatment Group). Six instructional assistants received a six-hour training package to deliver the intervention to the ERI-Treatment Group across three urban high poverty schools.

Produktbeschreibung
This study investigated the effectiveness of a
supplemental early reading intervention package on
the segmentation, blending and oral reading fluency
skills of 23 urban first-grade students, including
English Language Learners (ELLs), who continued to be
at reading risk after receiving intensive
phonological awareness training the previous year in
kindergarten (i.e., ERI-Treatment Group). Six
instructional assistants received a six-hour training
package to deliver the intervention to the
ERI-Treatment Group across three urban high poverty
schools. Pre- and posttest standardized measures
(WJ-III; CTOPP) and tri-weekly progress monitoring
data were collected to evaluate student progress.
Data were analyzed with regression models, contrasts,
and repeated measures mixed-effects modeling. The
findings highlight the importance of intensive
phonological awareness training and its potentially
lasting effects to reduce the reading risk of
extremely vulnerable students. They also underscore
the need to provide ongoing intensive support,
depending on students responsiveness to intervention.
