Not fun watching/listening to yourself but #ReadingRecovery is too good an intervention to not shout about. I have learned so much over the past 7 years since I started on my RR journey with @LucyLiteracy
In our latest Catch up with Colleagues series, we spoke to Lucy Cosstick and Gillian Gourlay, our Reading Recovery Teacher Leaders. They explain more to us about the Reading Recovery programme in East Renfrewshire and the impact it's had.

A fabulous day looking at the #TogetherBetterReaders intervention with pupil support assistants from across the authority. Really interesting discussions around how best to support our learners to become confident and independent readers.

The goal of Reading Recovery is that children not only catch up with their peers but sustain those gains, remaining in the average band of literacy attainment. https://t.co/wrleXAtN1t

There are not many interventions with research evidence showing that long term gains are sustained. Reading Recovery is one of them. https://t.co/wrleXAtfbV

@PamelaSnow2 Yes, this is why in Reading Recovery writing is a daily activity & Ts learn that letter learning is more than just linking letters to sound. Always fascinating to see those who bash RR promote the very practices that RR used to help children on their path to becoming literate.

Dr. Marie Clay referred to a child’s progress as change over time. These photos are an excellent example of change over time in the development of literacy and the power of contingent, responsive teaching in Reading Recovery lessons. #readingrecoveryworks #buildingbetterreaders
