Effective reading interventions

[aroomofherown]

I've posted on secondary but I think there may be more expertise here. I need to implement a reading intervention program for secondary students who have a delay in their reading.

What you you advise and why? And can anyone point me in the direction of some studies/research?

Many thanks

Phonics International is a great resource. If you do use it Debbie Hepplewhite will often answer any questions you might have or provide help on the PI forums.

Agreed maizieD probably over the border of libellous

and just for the record www.multilit.com/ MULTILIT, (or ‘Making Up Lost Time in Literacy’) is a research-based initiative of Macquarie University , which aims to address the needs of students with reading disabilities and similar problems from Year 2 to high school by providing an intensive, structured, systematic program of instruction in reading and related skills carried out within a Positive Teaching environment.

Ah ok, lovely. I know Macquarie Uni quite well (I'm from Sydey - might have just outed myself!) so that intervention is particularly interesting to me and will look that up too.
