The vision and purpose of S.T.R.I.V.E. (Student Targeted Reading Instruction that Values Early Intervention) is to diagnose reading deficits and provide targeted instruction to address individual student needs as part of the MTSS (Multi-Tiered System of Supports) process. The goal of the program is to enhance student interest in reading and develop independent readers. The program consists of activities to support concepts of print, phonemic awareness, letter recognition, letter-sound correspondence, phonics, decoding, comprehension and other essential reading skills and strategies. Skills will be taught through repetition, modeling, and guidance.
A variety of assessment measures will be reviewed and analyzed in order to select student participation.
