The Barksdale Reading Institute is designed to
dramatically improve the skills of preK-3 children through a systematic
and direct implementation of a continuous improvement, research-based
Mississippi Reading Reform Model. Teachers perform informal assessments
to determine whether children have reading difficulties. They evaluate
the assessment results and prescribe interventions. BRI works with the
schools to develop student-specific interventions, including cooperative
learning procedures, to allow teachers to work one-on-one with children.
Paid and volunteer tutors work with preK-3 children to enhance fluency
and comprehension skills. The Barksdale Reading Institute was
established with a $100-million endowment from former Netscape CEO, Jim
Barksdale and his wife, Sally.
Used at Akin Elementary and McBride Elementary |
