| Abstract | Successfully teaching all children to read continues to be one of the most challenging issues in classrooms across the nation. Students are being identified with reading deficiencies in their primary years and these deficits persist through adulthood. Teachers are being challenged to address student reading difficulty in the classroom setting with limited skill and resources. Research has identified a rising trend in prevention and prereferral reading intervention. Schools have begun to develop multidisciplinary teams known as prereferral intervention teams (PIT) to work together to assist in developing effective reading intervention for struggling readers.; This qualitative study identified the critical elements of reading prereferral intervention by exploring the development, implementation and monitoring stages of the process. The data for this study was collected through classroom observations, questionnaires with follow-up interviews and a review of existing PIT team records. The results of this study identified three recurring themes in the reading prereferral process, (1) the importance of planning and organization (2) the importance of predefined PIT team roles and responsibilities and (3) the importance of support and resources.; The study concluded that reading prereferral intervention aims to identify and support those students that are struggling in the area of reading early and effectively. With the support of a team, intervention can be developed, implemented and monitored effectively in the classroom setting. |
