The purpose of my action research project is to learn why our students are struggling in reading and how to improve the teaching at our campus so the students will be successful, and we can meet AYP next year. I might try and set up a vertical alignment team, reading specialist, and are ESL teacher to help objectively look at the data. Three years ago our bond didn't pass or our district cut reading recovery, which I think is part of why we are seeing an issue with reading now. We still have 5 reading recovery certified teachers on our campus as classroom teachers and I am one of them, I do reading recovery type lessons during my guided reading with my students and 4 of our 504 students from other classes during intervention time. I'm the only one trained in my grade level. The other teachers are in first grade, 1 in kindergarten plus our reading specialist. How could we use these teacher to help the upper level grades?
My research will help everyone on my campus. If I can find a pattern in our data and research ideas of what other campuses have done to improve there reading scores. I feel that I will be able to offer some valid ideas on how to improve our AYP reading scores.
