     During the 2011-2012 school year, St. Gregory's School will implement a new Reading Intervention Program. This program includes: 

<ul style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 18pt;">
 <li>Time allotted is in addition to regular classroom reading instruction (3-4 times a week) 
 </li>
</ul>
<ul style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 18pt;">
 <li>Strong ongoing reading program in the classroom</li>
</ul>
<ul style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 18pt;">
 <li>Small pupil-teacher ratio 
 </li>
</ul>
<ul style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 18pt;">
 <li>Accelerated learning strategies are used; not a slower-pace "remedial" approach</li>
</ul>
<ul style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 18pt;">
 <li>Strategies support reading connected text</li>
</ul>
<ul style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 18pt;">
 <li>Teaching materials are carefully selected and sequenced in difficulty ("leveled") to insure student success</li>
</ul>
<ul style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 18pt;">
 <li>Instructional procedures begin with a great deal of teacher support that is gradually withdrawn to allow for student independence</li>
</ul>
<ul style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 18pt;">
 <li>Routine is predictable and consistent and includes reading, working with words, and skill-based web sites</li>
</ul>
<ul style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 18pt;">
 <li>Grade level goals outlined on Mrs. Fahrner's web pages</li>
</ul>
<ul style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 18pt;">
 <li>Assessment is efficient and ongoing, including classroom observation, discussion, and performance assessments</li>
</ul>
<ul style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 18pt;">
 <li>Primary students expected  to read on the Raz-kids site twice a week, and practice Dolch Sight Words until mastered</li>
</ul>
<ul style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 18pt;">
 <li>4th and 5th students expected to incorporate skills learned into their classroom work, and  encouraged to practice skills linked on their grade level page</li>
</ul>

RTI 
</div>


<div style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 18pt;" align="left">
 
     Response to Intervention (RTI) is a multi-step approach to providing
services and interventions to struggling learners. RTI allows for early
intervention by providing academic and behavioral supports instead of
waiting for a child to fail before offering help. <a href="http://www.rti-resource.org/" target="_blank">Click here</a> for more information.
