Reading Instruction in Darien

In Darien, Connecticut, Literacy Coordinator Cory Gillette emphasizes the evolving expectations of readers. The days of merely summarizing plots are behind us; comprehensive understanding of texts is now paramount. Our balanced literacy model integrates read-alouds, workshops, phonics, shared reading, and writing instruction. We focus on explicit, differentiated instruction through guided practices, small groups, and one-on-one support. Parents are encouraged to foster reading at home by modeling reading behaviors, facilitating book discussions, and helping children engage with 'just right' books through focused projects.
