| Abstract: |
Programed Tutorial Reading is a highly structured tutoring project for first graders. It supplements regular classroom reading instruction and is conducted by either paraprofessionals or high school tutors, not by teachers. The project uses tutoring kits designed to match six of the most commonly used basal reading series. The kits specify in detail what to teach and how to teach it, so that a tutor's decisions about a child's reading are limited to judging the correctness or appropriateness of answers. This brochure describes the program's approach and requirements in terms of instruction, management/communication, personnel, materials/equipment, facilities, and costs. Criteria to consider in adopting the program and a timetable for getting started are also outlined. (AA) |
