Ep. 134: Decodable Text Series: Small Group Instructional Time
We would love to hear from you! Send us a message (if you'd like a reply, email us at literacypodcast@greatminds.org)
In this episode, we talk with first grade teacher, April Evans, about how she uses Tier 1 foundational skills assessment data to make decisions about small group time, such as how students are grouped, what happens during small group instruction, and why all students have access to readable, knowledge building texts. She discusses structures and routines that support accuracy, fluency, and comprehension. Both decodable and readable, knowledge building texts have a purpose and place in her classroom.
