Educator Left Behind:Reading First
No Educator Left Behind is a series providing answers from the U.S. Department of Education to questions about the federal No Child Left Behind Act and how it will affect educators. If you have a question about No Child Left Behind, send an e-mail to Ellen Delisio, and we will submit your question to the Department of Education.
Question:
How will Reading First help teachers teach reading?
U.S. Department of Education:
Every Reading First grant will do four things in each state:
- Encourage reading programs based on scientifically based reading research -- that is, focusing on teaching methods that work.
- Ensure early and ongoing assessment of every child's progress using the best analytical tools.
- Provide professional development and support for teachers.
- Help monitor reading achievement gains in grades K-3.
