Abstract
The Capstone Project completed is designed to aide the Bellefonte Area School District in students attaining grade level reading expectations by the third grade. The researcher studied the reading data for the district’s current second grade students. The data that was analyzed was Fountas and Pinnell BAS data and AimswebPlus assessment data. The primary grade level teachers of the district were also surveyed to in order to determine the different reading intervention strategies being used in classrooms, data that teachers are analyzing, and their impressions of Fountas and Pinnell Classroom. The BAS and AimswebPlus data were cross referenced with the teacher survey data to identify effective reading instructional strategies that are being utilized in classrooms and share these strategies with the other teachers across the district. The researcher found that teachers are using a wide array of data points and a variety of instructional strategies in their classrooms. The research that was completed has shown a need for a multi-tiered system of support (MTSS) for its students. The Capstone Project will support the efforts to establish a MTSS program in all elementary schools for the district.
