Summary: In “The American Educator”, Joe Torgeson summarizes the research
on prevention as a way to save children from reading failure. He writes:
“In this article, I want to lay out two sets of findings: (1) what we know
about the kind of instruction that weak readers need in kindergarten through
second grade to prevent them from ever entering the downward spiral, and (2)
what we know about the effectiveness of interventions that make use of this
knowledge.”
