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.
