Abstract
Success in Reading Recovery has traditionally been measured by text reading, concordant with its meaning-driven theoretical base. Yet Reading Recovery lessons include a considerable amount of attention to the visual or orthographic patterns in words and phonological awareness instruction as well. In this study, children in Reading Recovery were found to perform significantly better than a control group not only on Reading Recovery measures, but also on measures of phonological awareness. Children successfully discontinued from Reading Recovery were also found to perform as well as a group of average achieving first graders on a measure of orthographic processing. This suggests that Reading Recovery has effects beyond those ordinarily claimed. (Author Abstract)
