On the occasion of the 15th anniversary of Reading Recovery
in North America, this booklet reviews the history of Reading Recovery's
"extensive growth, compelling research, and unprecedented success." The
booklet tells a story of individuals whose vision, dedication, and untiring
efforts have changed school systems and early literacy instruction,
demonstrating that literacy for all children is possible. At the same time,
the booklet tells a story of successful partnerships forged across
international boundaries (New Zealand Australia-United Kingdom-Canada-United
States) and academic settings (universities and public schools) by
collaborating participants, including researchers and practitioners; trainers
and students; teachers, children, and parents; educators and legislators;
school-based professionals; and partners. The illustrated history in the
booklet begins with Marie Clay in pre-1984 New Zealand and her ideas about
Reading Recovery and concludes with plans for future research in North
America. (NKA)
