Exploring the efficacy of Levelled Literacy Intervention will also act as a vehicle to explore how school divisions can more proficiently support teachers in implementing resources and policies in schools.  \nDuring the 2019/2020 school year, at a division-based junior high school literacy meeting, the main topic of discussion was classroom-based interventions that could successfully address student needs with reading in the classroom. The Fountas & Pinnell Levelled Literacy Intervention System (LLI, Fountas & Pinnell, 2016) was introduced as a trusted, well-researched literacy-based program that would support our struggling readers in our junior high classrooms. LLI offers supplemental instruction to small groups at various literacy levels for K-12 students. The use of systematic assessment data allows students to work at instructional reading levels appropriate for their learning , and facilitates the formation of small groups with similar reading level needs. LLI supports instruction and learning in effectively processing words and word structures, phonemic awareness, phonics, and comprehension. Oral reading of fiction and nonfiction texts encourages student responses through writing, vocabulary, core word learning, and oral expression (Clear Creek Independent School District [CCISD], 2015; Fountas & Pinnell, 2016; Majewski, 2018) . The LLI system was recommended at our literacy meeting as a wholeclassroom approach despite being developed as supplement to regular classroom literacy instruction.  \nThe use of LLI as a whole-classroom approach, as suggested by the division coordinator, was accompanied by the suggestion of creating ability levelled groups in the classroom based on literacy assessment, running records, reading comprehension, and the web-based literacy assessment Literably (2022) . In addition to creating ability levelled groups, it was suggested that we form book studies so that when small group instruction was occurring with one group, the other small groups of students would have meaningful work to help with classroom management and provide the kind of focus and small-group attention that LLI requires. The junior high teachers participating in the divisional literacy meeting raised questions about implementation. Despite an initial skepticism and lack of support amongst teachers, the division purchased multiple LLI systems and delivered them to our division's largest school for implementation. A directive to implement LLI in 15 English language arts classes across grades seven to nine was provided to eight teachers. No guidance, training, or time beyond regular professional learning Fridays was provided to the teachers for implementing Fountas & Pinnell's LLI system. The directive to integrate LLI beyond LLI’s intended scope of supplementary usage was not supported by the teachers involved. Exacerbated by the questions of classroom management and training, the teachers involved felt overwhelmed because one more thing was added to their work plate at the cost of the teachers’ professional autonomy. A rationale from the division level was not provided to the teachers, just the directive to implement LLI.  \nProblem  \nWhile the suggestion to implement the LLI system was provided with the best intentions, it was offered as a whole-class approach that exceeded the scope of LLI’s design for small-group supplementary instruction. No support was provided for implementing LLI other than the purchase of three sets of LLI: the gold, purple, and teal systems, at an approximate cost of $14,000. As a result, the collective teacher motivation to implement LLI systems was reduced and","cbCaibwLCJNXLm2J","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaibwLCJNXLm2J","pdf",189741,"English","# Abstract\n## Introduction\n## Problem\n## Literature Review","[{\"question\":\"What is the focus of the article regarding LLI?\",\"answer\":\"The article evaluates whether the Fountas \\u0026 Pinnell Levelled Literacy Intervention can produce effective, positive results when implemented as a whole-classroom approach.\"},{\"question\":\"How does LLI support literacy instruction in small groups?\",\"answer\":\"LLI uses systematic assessment data to set instructional reading levels and form small groups, supporting word and word-structure processing, phonemic awareness, phonics, and comprehension.\"},{\"question\":\"What implementation challenge is highlighted from the 2019/2020 school year experience?\",\"answer\":\"Teachers reported being overwhelmed due to directives to integrate LLI without sufficient guidance, training, or additional time beyond regular professional learning.\"}]","The Fountas and Pinnell Levelled Literacy Intervention as a Whole-Classroom Approach - Abstract | PDF",15]
