It seems like a lot of kids have a hard time learning to read. It is good to know that there are programs that can help those kids that are having a hard time. Do you find that this approach has a lot of success? <a href="http://kidslearningforsuccess.com/Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06786071626304729922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7115493794020921973.post-85250573029553355492011-04-25T16:50:46.787-07:002011-04-25T16:50:46.787-07:00I hear your concern about budgets, Rebecca.

Now I have some research to back up my intuition. :)<br /><br />We are looking to expand our RtI program next year to include vocabulary intervention in Tier 2. Our student body is 95% EL, and many our students' weak vocabulary knowledge inhibits their reading.
