If a student is having difficulty with Reading, what kinds of interventions are available at Y.A.L.E.?
Students are placed in small groups for daily Language Arts instruction based on their specific instructional needs. These needs are determined by our Reading Specialists after review of placement testing results, as well as review of student records. A variety of types of texts including basal reader, direct instruction, linguistic based readers and literature programs are available to meet the specific needs of each student. In addition, many students receive individual instruction in Reading or Written Expression. A variety of multisensory materials and techniques are used. For students needing direct, systematic instruction in phonics-decoding, 1-on-1 instruction in the Wilson Reading System is available. An on-site trainer runs annual training for staff members in the Wilson Reading System. Reading Specialists oversee placement of students and consult with teachers on a regular basis to monitor instructional goals and make any necessary instructional changes.
