WHAT DO VULNERABLE READERS NEED?
They need Kindergarten, grade one and grade two teachers, administrators and specialists to take
intervention-action urgently!!!!!
Grade 3 is TOO late start an intervention for most vulnerable readers.

SD 59 PEACE RIVER SOUTH PROCESS
How did we get our teachers on board?
How many joined?
What were their reactions?
What did we do differently during the course of the year?
How did we measure the results – pre/post?

• Reporting out on literacy, numeracy and social/emotional learning
• PE/Art/Music are integrated. These and any other prep blocks are scheduled in the afternoon
• Other curricular area themes are incorporated into the three focus areas but are not reported on the report card.
• An inquiry/activity based environment

2014/2015 DATA
This year we chose three schools to look at their data.
The reason these three schools were picked is because all of the primary classes were in the project last year and all of the primary classes were in the project this year as well.
Here is the data for the grade 1’s.

SUMMARY
• When looking at the Kindergarten Screenings done in September and June a significant amount of students who had failed, were passing in June. In comparison to other
years, more students were passing the Kindergarten Screen in June.
• The Circle Chart tracking device is popular and works well to inform daily instruction.
• Children are thriving and learning to read and write in joyful, challenging environments
• Teachers are excited, enthusiastic, and proud; they are learning new skills and applying them with results they can
measure
• Quantitative data is confirming the qualitative data.
• Created a dynamic professional learning community with the primary teachers in the district!!

ON-GOING COMMITMENT
• The project will be on-going and will be adjusted based on literacy data. The Kindergarten cohort will be specifically

• New participants will be welcomed at the beginning of each year and existing participants will continue to be supported.
• Provide targeted funding to support travel and professional development.
• Facilitate the PLC’s and provide meals for gatherings
• Provide facilitation for the development and use of an alternate report card
• Teachers are opening their classrooms to visiting districts.
