  7. A Thought “How I set up my classroom, the way I organize my day, and the materials I provide can either ‘make or break’ my efforts to work effectively with children. I take to heart Don Holdaway’s advice in Independence in Reading: ‘Much of our teaching energy is spent on compensating for an unfavorable environment. It would be far more sensible to use our energies first on the environment itself.’” Sharon Taberski: On Solid Ground

  8. Classroom Set-up • Purposeful location of centers/stations • Accessible materials • Classroom library organized and leveled • Desks arranged for collaboration • Organized area to lead a small group

  9. What are my other students doing while I’m leading a small group? • Independently reading • Literacy centers/stations • http://fcrr.org/ • The Daily Five—Read to Self, Read to Someone, Work on Writing • Debbie Diller books: • Making The Most of Small Groups • Literacy Work Stations • Practice with Purpose

  10. Signals • To minimize interruptions • For movement/rotation • Managing noise level • Getting student’s attention

  13. Before Reading • Previews the text • Activates prior knowledge • Sets a purpose for reading • Makes predictions

  14. During Reading • Teacher reads, and then listens to individual students read. • Monitor comprehension • asking questions • rereading • Interacting with the text (note-taking, post-it notes. response journals) • Make personal connections • Create pictures (visualizing) • Check previous predictions, make new predictions

  15. After Reading • Reflect on what was read • Summarize the major ideas • Interpret and evaluate the ideas in the text • Synthesize information from a variety of texts to produce opinions • Praise point • Teaching point

  17. Reflection Questions • Are my students able to move responsibly during transitions and work independently? • Can the student, after your small group instruction, read independently with fluency and be able to understand it? • Can the student apply what is taught to any text?
