Abstract
|
|
The effects of the Reading Recovery (RR) program on at-risk children’s literacy
development have been well documented. However, the effects of the Reading
Recovery program, which combines one-on-one attention with an individualized
approach, may go beyond the realm of reading and writing to affect students’ aspirations.
This paper represents an effort to connect practices of the RR program with
known conditions for student aspirations. The implications of this work suggest that
investing effort in RR may affect not only children’s literacy development, but also
their aspirations, which are generalizable to other areas of the children’s lives. (Author Abstract)
