Compelling Question: Will small group or individual interventions help them with comprehension and vocabulary?
Answer: Two students were chosen and tested for this project. The tests that were administered included Ekwall and Shanker's Reading Inventory (3rd Ed.) and the San Diego Quick. Using the results of the tests, both students were given individualized plans of instruction, which were completed over the course of four weeks. At the conclusion of this period, both students were re-evaluated in the areas of comprehension, vocabulary, and fluency. The findings of this work with the assessment and intervention of reading abilitiies were evidence that one-to-one and small group interventions had helped the students with comprehension and vocabulary, as well as fluency.

In this course I was also expected to research and present short write-ups of interventions and assessments for the different aspects of literacy instruction. I have included my vocabulary interventions and assessment here:
Word Sort Intervention
Charades Vocabulary Strategy
Maze Sentences Vocabulary
