Reading Recovery
Program for Educators

- Reading Recovery teacher candidates must be certified teachers selected for training by their school system. In the United States, teacher leaders provide Reading Recovery Teachers with a full academic year of training during a three-hour class one day a week

 

- During the training year each teacher receives graduate credit while working with four children on a daily basis and attending a weekly class. In addition, each teacher-in-training is observed at least four times during the training year by the teacher leader.

 

- Training integrates theory and practice. A one-way mirror enables trainees to observe, discuss, and reflect on Reading Recovery lessons with the teacher leader.

 

- Reading Recovery teachers develop effective observational skills and a repertoire of teaching approaches that can be tailored to meet the needs of individual students.
