Cooke, Nancy L.; Slee, Jill M.; Young, Cheryl A. – Reading Improvement, 2020
There is some evidence that reading and spelling are complementary processes. The purpose of this study was to investigate the extent to which contextualized spelling (i.e., spelling activities within the context of reading instruction) is used to support reading in first-grade core reading programs. Analysis of 75 lessons across five programs…

D'Agostino, Jerome V.; Kelly, Robert H.; Rodgers, Emily – Reading Psychology, 2019
While there is consensus that self-corrections (SCs) ought to be coded as part of oral reading assessments, less agreement exists as to what, if any, role self-correcting plays in reading development. The purpose of this study was to address limitations of prior research and provide a more statistically accurate estimate of the role of SC in early…

Pindiprolu, Sekhar S.; Marks, Lori J. – Rural Special Education Quarterly, 2020
Students who display reading difficulties/disabilities at the end of third grade are less likely to succeed in content areas and graduate from high school than their reading-proficient peers. Literature suggests that students in rural school districts lag behind their suburban peers in terms of their reading levels and accessibility to resources.…
