These students receive 4 different phonics interventions from different teachers every day and still make little to no progress. The teacher is beginning to think that there may be too many interventions being but in place. Any suggestions on how to move students toward becoming more successful readers? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) Four different phonics intervention strategies is too much. The student will become more successful when the teacher finds an intervention strategy that works for their particular need. It is helpful to use scaffolding techniques, explore the students intrest, and making meaningful connections within the work that the student is engaged in completing. If the teacher notices that the interventions are not working then he or she should try a new one until the student begins to make significant progress. Every student learn differently but they will comprehend better when it is given properly.
