Description

This project explores two elementary aged children with significant literacy difficulties that participated in the Camp Maverick: Rec N' Read program for two consecutive years including summers and after school sessions. The purpose of this project was to explore the similarities and differences in the two participants as well as the progress they made over the two years. Data sources included literacy assessment, pre and post sessions, behavioral data during sessions and parent interviews. Case study methodology will be used to explore data sources and compare differences due to disability profile. The progress results will be determined by looking at the pre and post assessment data over the course of the two years as well as the parents input on changes since initial enrollment. Findings will aid in creating literacy intervention plans for a variety of disabilities.
