  2. What is LLI? • LLI is a small-group (no larger than 3 students), supplementary intervention program designed for young children who struggle with reading and writing. LLI is a powerful, research-based early intervention program that can prevent literacy difficulties before they turn into long-term challenges. • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cBEABOLw6ww

  3. 15 Keys to Running a Successful Intervention Program

  4. 1. Supplemental • All LLI children will still see his/her classroom teacher during Daily 5 for strategy instruction within the classroom.

  5. 2. Daily • 30 minute sessions • Reinforce new learning • Students engage in reading, writing, word study

  6. 3. Small Groups • Three students maximum • Close observation by the LLI teacher • Individual learning leads to faster progress • “Intervention is NOT about coverage!”

  7. 4. Short Term • System designed to bring students up to grade level in 18-24 weeks

  8. 5. Structured Lessons • Very structured framework (children learn the routines) • LLI teacher make decisions specific to observations

  9. 6. Fast Paced • Intensive and rigorous • One lesson/day • Pace keeps students engaged in successful experiences • Use of a timer • Preserve the 30 minutes

  10. 7. Deep Comprehension • Throughout the reading process – before, during, after reading • Beyond literal interpretation • Within text • About text • Beyond text

  11. 8. Writing • Writing is integral for success • Strong reading and writing connection • Students compose, construct, and develop essential strategies • Materials: correction tape, skinny Crayola markers, grey paper

  12. 9. Fluency • Fluency is critical • Each lesson includes attention to fluent, phrased reading as well as fluent writing • If a student is not fluent, progress is hampered

  13. 10. High-Quality Text • Multiple copies of leveled texts • Designed to engage young readers with high quality fiction and non-fiction selections • Texts have been systematically crafted to build phonics and word analysis skills and arranged along a careful gradient of text characteristics • “Students aren’t levels, books are levels.”

  14. 11. Word Work • Focus on phonological awareness, phonemic awareness, letter-sound patterns (phonics), word structure, spelling patterns, high frequency words • Word work is critical but not to the exclusion of comprehension (balanced literacy)

  15. 12. On-Going Assessment • Ongoing • Running records (at least weekly) • Comprehension-checks • Word recognition

  16. 13. Professional Learning • The LLI teachers in the school/district must engage in professional learning together.

  17. 14. Classroom Connections • Critical to student success • Record-keeping documents should be shared and reviewed • Successful strategies in intervention/classroom are shared for consistency

  18. 15. Home Connection • Materials reflecting student interest, culture • Share success with students, families • Shared expectations

  19. Who is LLI for? LLI is designed to be used with small groups (3) of children who need intensive supports to achieve grade level competencies. For example: • The lowest achieving children in the classroom who are not receiving other supplementary interventions • ELL

  20. Other Considerations For Selecting Students for Intervention • Use Benchmark Assessment System results to select and group children • Begin with students who need the most help • The levels should be about the same within the group • Students should be re-grouped when necessary • Most children can be brought to grade level in 18-24 weeks

  21. LLI Systems There are four (almost 5) LLI systems available coded by color: • The Orange system (Levels A- C) • The Green system (Levels A-J) • The Blue system (Levels C-J) • The Red system (Levels L-Q) • The Gold system (Levels O-T)

  22. Essential Elements of Lessons There are three kinds of lessons: • Getting Started Lessons (Orange and Green Kit) • Odd Numbered Lessons • Even Numbered Lessons

  23. Getting Started Lessons Include: • Rereading – 5 minutes • Phonics – 5 minutes • Rereading a new book with several levels of support – 8 minutes • Writing about reading – 7 minutes • Letter word work – 5 minutes

  24. Odd Numbered Lessons Include: • Rereading Books – 5 minutes • Phonics/Word Work – 5 minutes • New Book – 15 minutes • Letter/Word Work – 5 minutes

  25. Even Numbered Lessons • Rereading Books and Assessment – 5 minutes • Phonics/Word Work - 5 minutes • Writing about Reading – 15 minutes • New Book – 5 minutes • Optional Letter Word Work – no time specified

  26. Professional Development DVD Teaching • Selection of Students • Getting Organized • Getting Started Lessons • LLI Framework • Instructional Routines (Sampling of Routines) • Record Keeping

  27. Build Classroom Connections by Coordinating with the Classroom Teacher • Invite the classroom teacher to observe an LLI lesson • Share records on an on-going basis • Ask for the classroom teacher’s input • Ensure that the classroom teacher is using 1-to-1 or small-group instruction • Use the Classroom Connections

  28. Assessment and Record Keeping Ongoing assessment is built into the system : • Assess one student every second day • Every child will get assessed once a week (approximately)

  30. Running Records Specifics:Analyzing Errors and Self Corrections Meaning-Structure-Visual Information • Meaning • Did the meaning of the text influence the error? • Did it MAKE SENSE? • Structure • Does the error fit an acceptable English language structure • Did it SOUND right? • Visual Information • Did the visual information from the print influence any part of the error? • Did it LOOK right?

  31. Reading Records • Reading records monitor progress and teaching. The information is used differently than BAS. • Professional Development and Tutorials are available for review and additional practice of how to keep reading records. • Coding and Scoring Errors at a Glance are used for reading records (Chart to help you)
