Adventure Island is an after school,
intensive reading intervention
program for students in grades 2-5.
The program is developmental among
four levels: Alphie's Lagoon,
Captain's Cove, Discovery Bay, and
Treasure Harbor. The program
begins with a strong phonics base
and accelerates to specific reading
comprehension.
This fast paced, highly engaged
curriculum is based upon cooperative
learning strategies designed to help
students become better readers while
building their level of confidence.
Teachers will learn strategies to
help them successfully implement
this program in the after school
setting.
For participants who are interested,
a third day (Friday, June 27) will
be allocated to provide an
opportunity to begin planning for
students to enable after school
programming to beginning early in
September. Student
selection/recruitment using
available data will enable teachers
to identify students who could
benefit from these programs.
