You’ve started Read To Self. You’re setting your foundation lessons and your kiddos are building stamina. So now what? We may build our read to self-stamina by practicing a couple of times a day, but since that only takes a small portion of our ELA block, in my kindergarten class, we are practicing and building a foundation in the other Daily 5 components during the rest of the time until our reading stamina goal is met. The first two weeks might look a bit like the ... VIEW POST

I love that this system appeals to the boys ... VIEW POST
Assessment and Grouping: Chapter 2 of The Next Step
Assessment and Grouping-Chapter 2 The Next Step Chapter Two speaks about assessment and grouping. I’m passionate about assessment. No! Not the kind of paper pencil standardized assessment that we teachers dread and avoid if at all possible. I like the kind of assessment that is meaningful, thought provoking and that allows me to adjust my instruction to better respond to my students’ needs. Why do we assess? Ok, stick with me for a second while I switch gears and talk a ... VIEW POST
