Developed by Irene Fountas and Gay Su Pinnell
The groundbreaking Fountas & Pinnell Leveled Literacy Intervention (LLI) is a research-based, supplementary intervention system designed to help teachers provide powerful, daily, small-group instruction for the lowest-achieving students in the early grades.
LLI Professional Development for the Orange, Green, and Blue systems includes three days of training (two days of intensive learning plus one follow-up day) to give participants an in-depth understanding of each of the three primary grade LLI Systems:
- Orange, Levels A-C (Kindergarten)
70 lessons with 70 original titles
- Green, Levels A-J (Grade 1)
110 lessons with 110 original titles
- Blue, Levels C-N (Grade 2)
120 lessons with 120 original titles
Topics covered include an overview of the Lesson Framework, assessing and grouping students, teaching within the LLI lessons, using the Prompting Guide, understanding the demands of texts, and documenting progress. In addition to learning how to implement LLI, participants will deepen their understanding of many research-based techniques to help struggling readers make accelerated progress.
