Students deserve to see representations of themselves in the books that they read, but with low amounts of culturally diverse books being published, this is not an easy feat. Students are exposed to a wide variety of literature in their classrooms, and as the need increases for culturally responsive teaching, it is important to explore how…

This exploratory study examined the nature of instruction provided in two reading intervention programs designed for elementary-grade students with dyslexia (The Multisensory Teaching Approach and Reading RULES!). In addition to documenting the proportion of time dedicated to particular content components (i.e., letter-name knowledge, phonological…

In this paper we describe an educational program for the development of the study method for students with specific learning disorders (SLD) and a first Italian application on a small sample of fifth grade students. This experience was aimed at collecting useful data precisely to review and improve the above-mentioned program. A particularly…

This study investigated whether the use of sticky notes as a flagging reading comprehension intervention strategy would significantly improve reading growth as shown in informational text objective quizzes for sixth grade Academic Intervention Service (AIS) students. The intervention was administered as a guided reading, teacher-directed method…

Over 18 million children in Ethiopia are enrolled at the primary level with a net enrollment rate of 100 percent. Unfortunately, the positive achievement of getting more children into school has strained the capacity of the system, and student learning has suffered.
