Description
Summary:	Reading Recovery is more than a list of techniques: we see trainees learning by observing each other through a one-way mirror, and discussing the teacher-pupil interactions that seem to determine success. Teacher-leader Dianna Craker guides a group of experienced primary teachers through the Reading Recovery programme, an intervention for children falling behind in literacy at Year 1. The training method is unusual but effective, as the teachers take turns to work with one of their children while the others observe. In this way, they learn through analysis of real practice, as well as theory.
