Description of the Book:

The Beverly Public Schools Comprehensive Remedial Reading Program, funded under Title I of the Elementary Secondary Education Act, was evaluated in the Spring of 1971. The program was comprised of Reading Laboratories using materials produced by Educational Development Laboratories, Inc. in three elementary schools, two junior high schools, and a senior high school, and of Remedial Reading Classes conducted in three elementary schools. Children in grades two through 12 participated in the Laboratories year round. Each child was scheduled for several sessions per week throughout the school year. Children were scheduled for Remedial Reading Classes for eight week quarters. Third graders attended in quarter one, sixth graders in quarter two, fifth graders in quarter three, and fourth graders in quarter four. Children in the Remedial Reading Classes were transported from their home schools to the classes conducted at the three ESEA Title I schools. This evaluation discusses the validity of the Educational Development Laboratories materials and procedures, and the adequacy of diagnostic and teaching procedures used in the Remedial Reading Classes.

It then considers the evidence of pupil achievement. [Reproduced from the best available copy.] (Author/JM
