October 16, 2014
Governor’s Teacher Network
• Spring 2014 application and acceptance• Summer 2014 – 2 day training in Raleigh• Fall 2014 – ongoing Moodle course and implement my Action
Research• Winter 2015 – analyze findings and present to a regional or
state audience• Spring 2015 – create my wiki to share the project for other NC
teachers to use
Results from the Staff Survey about LLI
Out of 33 responders:• 82% said they have not used LLI• 65% said it was intended for use by K-5 students• 13% said it is intended for use only by students
working at a Level P or below• 48% said it is intended for use with EC students
Questions from the Survey (a.k.a. Goals for this Session)
By the end of this session, teachers will have a better understanding regarding LLI, specifically:
1. What is the focus of the program?2. How is the program implemented? Who? When? Where?3. When can I start using this program with my students?4. What is my role in implementing the program?
What is the focus of the program?
“Leveled Literacy Intervention (LLI) is a small group, supplementary intervention designed for children who find reading and writing difficult. The goal is to bring children to grade level achievement.” (p 3, Green Program Guide)
It is a supplement, not a replacement for small group classroom instruction.
What is the focus at…
School?Students work on predictable lesson elements including: • Independent reading• Strategy work• Rereading for Fluency• Comprehension• Phonics/Word Work• Writing About Reading
Home?Students have regular routines at home for continued practice including:• Rereading the book• Discussing the text with an
adult using question stems• Practicing fluency• Responding to a text in
writing
How is the program implemented? Who? When? Where?
Mini-teams:• Each K-5 team can share TA
time to combine students at similar levels.
• One teacher plans for Level X and shares, one teacher shares for Level Y and shares, one teacher plans for Level Z and shares…
Gr 3-5 Tutoring Structure:• Grade 3 will start next
Wednesday, about 32 students have been chosen
• Grades 4 & 5 – we are working to complete your schedule and student selection
Who?
• LLI lessons are provided for Levels A-Z so all of our students can benefit-EC, LEP, TD, etc
The boxes have been organized, labeled and placed in grade level tutor rooms. Teachers will need to maintain the condition of the books, lesson guides and boxes so that this resource stays intact. If you need a level outside of your grade level, you will need to go to the tutor room of that grade level for your materials.

When?
K-5 Teachers using LLI could use it during:• TA support time that is available to your mini-team (a
student should not miss reading, writing or math instruction) This is a supplement, not a replacement.
• SOAR as your intervention tool for kids with P.I.T. folders
• Teachers in grades 3-5 will have a schedule provided for the Structured TA Support. Third grade will get theirs tomorrow.
When can I start using this program with my students?
Nearly all of the boxes are in the corresponding grade level tutor rooms.
You can use them tomorrow! We are working to copy lessons from
the Lesson Guides to put in each folder. This work will take a long time and will
need to be on-going.
Daily, you will need to borrow and return the Program Lesson Guide from
the tutor room.
What is my role in implementing LLI?

of instruction and progress monitor every 3 weeks using TRC
• Communicate with the TA using FORM 3 on a weekly basis, providing input to next steps and goals
• Gather materials for the TA as needed
• Maintain each student’s P.I.T. folder and PEP related to this intervention
• Maintain parent communication regarding goals and progress

So how does it work?
1. There is a Lesson Guide for each colored section of the program. Each guide has numbered lessons for each level in that series. (Odd/Even Lessons)
2. For each lesson, there is a matching envelope of books and take-home books (for most levels).
3. The green series has a supplemental CD of lesson extensions. A hard copy of these will be located in the corresponding lesson folder. Please make copies of these if you decide to use them.
4. In most cases, Orange and Green sets have matching big books for the student copies.

Mini-teams:• Each K-5 team can share TA

• One teacher plans for Level X and shares, one teacher shares for Level Y and shares, one teacher plans for Level Z and shares…
Gr 3-5 Tutoring Structure:• Grade 3 will start next
Wednesday, about 32 students have been chosen
• Grades 4 & 5 – we are working to complete your schedule and student selection
Our framework will need to look a bit different than it is laid out in the guide. This is a suggested framework:
Day 1: • 1-Reread a familiar text, listen in and take notes• 2-Phonics/Word Work Quick Focus, take notes• 3-New book & specific strategy, listen & take notes• Home/School Folder goes home (Versions will vary for K-2nd and 3rd-5th) Samples are
available to look at on the front shelves. I will be making these for your students.
Day 2:• 1-Reread a familiar text, listen in and take notes• 3-Comprehension discussion about the book• 4-Writing about the book• Home/School Folder goes home
Let’s look at the provided lesson plan sample.
Some scheduling variations to consider:
Mon Tues Wed Thur
TA does Lesson X Day 1
Teacher does Lesson X Day 2
TA does Lesson Y Day 1
Teacher does Lesson Y Day 2
Mon Tues Wed Thur
TA does Lesson X Day 1
Teacher does Lesson Y Day 1
TA does Lesson X Day 2
Teacher does Lesson Y Day 2
Mon Tues Wed Thur
TA does Lesson X Day 1
Teacher does strategy lesson using own materials
TA does Lesson X Day 2
Teacher uses Lesson X materials for a strategy lesson to complement current unit
Using the ProgramMaterials for Levels A, B, E, F, J, L, M, Q, R, R, and U will be put out around the room.
Select a level that would be fitting for students in your class and inspect the lesson & books.
Use a copy of Form 2 to plan out what might be the pieces you would pull out from the lesson for yourself to teach or for a TA to teach. (5-10 mins)
Next steps:3rd grade teachers: • Send home information to parents on Monday• Remind parents about a Parent Support Session on Nov. 13 at
6:30.All teachers:• Share PEP naming this intervention at Parent-Teacher
Conferences• Maintain P.I.T. folders with TRC progress monitoring every 3
weeks• Communicate with the TA supporting your studentsTAs:• Ask for help from the classroom teacher or from Mary as you
need it
Session GoalsBy the end of this session, teachers will have a better understanding regarding LLI, specifically:
1. What is the focus of the program?2. How is the program implemented? Who? When? Where?3. When can I start using this program with my students?4. What is my role in implementing the program?
Please complete the survey to indicate if these goals were met.
