ImplementingSupplemental Programs
in Reading First
August 26, 2003
Overview
• Supplemental Programs–What are they?–How are they use?–How to evaluate a program for
SBRR and alignment to the core program?
Supplemental Defined
• Functioning in a subsidiary or supporting capacity;
• Something which is added to something else in order to improve it or complete it; something extra;
• An additional part of a book, either produced separately or included at the end, which contains information that was not available when the book was first produced.

Survey says: for Reading FirstThisor
That
The Academy Guidebook says…
• A Supplemental Reading Programs purpose is to provide additional instruction in one or more areas of reading.– Page 45– Slide 46
The Reading Leadership Academy Guidebook
How Are Supplemental Programs Used?
• After the core reading program
• Before intervention
• Intensely, Systematically, Explicitly
• Highly focused on specific reading skills
• With a small group
• Not as the total reading programOvercoming Dyslexia by Sally Shaywitz, M.D.
In Data We Trust – All Else – Bring Research!
• Research suggests that students who struggle with reading have a need for intensive instruction that is explicit and systematic and that includes critical elements of effective reading programs.
• Critical:– Core
•Supplemental
»Intervention (Snow,Burns, & Griffin, 1998)
Classification / Evaluation
• “If a program is classified as a supplemental or intervention, evaluators would use an appropriate evaluation process to determine program quality.”
– Page 45– Slide 46
The Reading Leadership Academy Guidebook
So How Should We Evaluate Supplemental Programs?
• With Extreme Caution!!
• University of Oregon is currently creating a tool.
• Other states have used parts of the Consumer’s Guide.
• We are still investigating this and will provide you with details as we discover them! – REMEMBER – This is a learning process for all involved!
No Layering• Cannot alternate with a different
