Abstract

This chapter presents a discussion of varying experiences of intervention sessions with struggling readers. It includes vignettes of children at the elementary level who are at risk for reading failure due to struggles in one or more conceptual areas of learning how to read. The vignettes highlight some opportunities that exist within an intervention session to develop effective strategies for strengthening literacy skills. This chapter focuses on pedagogical methodologies in literacy instruction and intervention, working directly with struggling readers. The vignettes of reading behaviors of struggling readers illustrate how literacy instruction and intervention uses tools for developmentally appropriate literacy intervention strategies built upon the literature related to a balanced and comprehensive literacy framework presented in the previous chapters. Furthermore, this chapter includes effectively designed strategies to help children strengthen literacy skills and discussions about literacy intervention experiences based on these individual case studies of struggling readers.
