This teacher resource describes the Catholic Education Office of Western Australia's (CEOWA's) successful Early Literacy Intervention strategy, which provides intensive daily individual reading and writing intervention for the lowest-achieving students in year 1. Organised in nine sections: Summary; Target student group; Method; Results; Next steps; Lessons learned; Research base; Further reading and links; and Contacts, the resource identifies the need for intervention teachers to build on each child's strengths, teach reading and writing together as reciprocal and interrelated processes, monitor learning through detailed daily observations, and continually plan for progress and success.
