What is LLI?
LLI is a small-group (no larger than 3 students), supplementary intervention program designed for young children who struggle with reading and writing. LLI is a powerful, research-based early intervention program that can prevent literacy difficulties before they turn into long-term challenges.
4
1. Supplemental
To the daily literacy block occurring within the classroom which should consist of all the balanced literacy components including guided reading.
2. Daily
30 minute sessions Reinforce new learning and
support accelerated program Students engage in reading,
writing, word study 10 minutes assigned beyond the
30 minute session dedicated for student transition
3. Small Groups
Three students maximum Close observation by the LLI
teacher facilitates teaching Individual learning leads to
faster progress
4. Short Term
System designed to bring students up to grade level in 18-24 weeks
5. Structured Lessons
Very structured framework (children learn the routines)
LLI teacher makes decisions specific to observations
6. Fast Paced
Intensive and rigorous Pace keeps students engaged in
successful experiences Use of a timer Preserve the 30 minutes.
7. Deep Comprehension
Throughout the reading process – before, during, after reading
Beyond literal interpretation Within text About text Beyond text
8. Writing
Writing is integral for success. Strong reading and writing
connection. Students compose, construct,
and develop essential strategies for in the classroom.
9. Fluency
Fluency is critical Each lesson includes attention to
fluent, phrased reading as well as fluent writing
If a student is not fluent, progress is hampered
10. High-Quality Text
Multiple copies of levelled texts Designed to engage young
readers with high quality fiction and non-fiction selections
Texts have been systematically crafted to build phonics and word analysis skills and arranged along a careful gradient of text characteristics
11. Word Work
Focus on phonological awareness, phonemic awareness, letter-sound patterns (phonics), word structure, spelling patterns, high frequency words
Word work is critical but not to the exclusion of comprehension (balanced literacy)
12. On-Going Assessment
More than pre-test, post-test Ongoing Running records (at least
weekly) Comprehension-checks Word recognition
13. Professional Learning
The LLI school team must engage in professional learning
Understanding of the reading process is an important determinant of student success
LLI team can refer to the Program Guide, Professional DVD, When Readers Struggle, LLI website to support their collaborative learning
14. Classroom Connections
Critical to student success Record-keeping documents
should be shared and reviewed Successful strategies in
intervention/classroom are shared for consistency
15. Home Connection
Materials reflecting student interest, culture
Share success with students, families
Shared expectations
Who is LLI for?
LLI is designed to be used with small groups (3) of children who need intensive supports to achieve grade level competencies. For example: the lowest achieving children in the
classroom who are not receiving other supplementary interventions;
children who have English as an additional language;
children that have been identified as children with intensive needs.
Other Considerations For Selecting Students for Intervention
Use Benchmark Assessment System (F&P) results to select and group children
Begin with students who need the most help
The levels should be the same within the group
Students should be re-grouped where necessary
Most children can be brought to grade level in 18-24 weeks
LLI Systems
There are three LLI systems available coded by color: The Orange system
(Levels A through C) The Green system
(Levels A through J) The Blue system
(Levels C through J)
Getting Organized
Find a space where the children are able to face the LLI teacher and see the materials.
In advance, print out materials from the Lesson Resource CD.
Initially using the system will require the LLI teacher to plan ahead of time so the materials are ready. Review the week’s lessons.
Lessons are designed for minimal planning once you get used to the structure.
Essential Elements of LessonsThere are three kinds of
lessons: Getting Started Lessons
(Orange and Green Kit) Odd Numbered Lessons
(Orange, Green, and Blue Kits)
Even Numbered Lessons (Orange, Green, and Blue Kits)
Getting Started Lessons Include:
Rereading – 5 minutes Phonics – 5 minutes Rereading a new book with
several levels of support – 8 minutes
Writing about reading – 7 minutes Letter word work – 5 minutesNote: The last Getting Started lap book is level D in the Green System. There are lap books throughout the orange kit.
Odd Numbered Lessons
Include: Rereading Books – 5 minutes Phonics/Word Work – 5 minutes New Book – 15 minutes Letter/Word Work – 5 minutes
Even Numbered Lessons
Rereading Books and Assessment – 5 minutes
Phonics/Word Work - 5 minutes Writing about Reading – 15
minutes New Book – 5 minutes Optional Letter Word Work – no
time specified
Professional Development DVD
Teaching Selection of students Getting Organized Getting Started Lessons LLI Framework Instructional Routines (Sampling of
Routines) Record Keeping
All Lessons Include the following Materials
1. Classroom Connections2. Home/School Connections3. Assessing Reading/Writing
Behaviors4. Supporting English Language
Behaviors5. Professional Development Units
1. Classroom Connections
Critical - Collaboration and communication between the classroom teacher and LLI teacher.
Includes specific suggestions for children to practice and extend their learning in the classroom.
This includes rereading the take-home book. Link to LLI Classroom Connections
located in LLI Training and Information Content and progress need to be
communicated (GSSD LLI Guidelines)
Build Classroom Connections by Coordinating with the Classroom
Teacher Invite the classroom teacher to
observe an LLI lesson. Share records on an on-going basis. Ask for their input and for what
they are seeing in the classroom. Ensure that the classroom teacher
is using small-group instruction. Use the Classroom Connections.
2. Home/School Connection
Includes specific suggestions for children to practice and extend their learning at home.
All take home resources are on the Lesson Resources CD-ROM.
3. Assessment and Record KeepingOngoing assessment is built into the system : Assess one student every second day Which means every child will get assessed once a
week (approximately)
Record Keeping: Keep record keeping simple, efficient and
informative After each lesson (or at least daily), time is
necessary to complete the records. Record keeping forms are found on the Lesson
Resources CD Additional assessment records are located on
LLI Training and Information Wordpress site.
Running Records Specifics:Analyzing Errors and Self
Corrections Meaning-Structure-Visual Information Meaning
• Did the meaning of the text influence the error?• Did it MAKE SENSE?
Structure • Does the error fit an acceptable English language
structure • Did it SOUND right?
Visual Information • Did the visual information from the print influence
any part of the error?• Did it LOOK right?
Analyzing Strategic ActionsThink of readers as problem solvers: What strategies are they using to figure out words and meaning?
The Guide for Observing and Noting Reading Behaviours (located on the Lessons Resources CD) suggests that the student might be using some or all of the following strategies:
• Early Reading Behaviour• Searching For and Using Information• Solving Words• Self-Monitoring• Self-Correcting• Maintaining Fluency
Reading Records Reading records monitor progress
and teaching. They are the same as BAS reading records.
Professional Development and Tutorials are available for review and additional practice of how to keep reading records.
Coding and Scoring Errors at a Glance are used for reading records (Chart to help you)
Intervention Record
Student files include your: anecdotal notes running records work samples LLI reading graph attendance record
4. Professional Development
Each kit includes PD and Tutorial DVDs and the book When Readers Struggle
A bibliography is found at the end of the Program Guide for additional resources.

Time for Professional Practice
Professional Development and Tutorial DVD’s
While you are assessing one of your students during an EVEN lesson, the other students are whisper reading previous books from the last lesson and other lessons. Refer to Practice Tutorials on the DVD’s to become comfortable with this process.
