Small Groups, Big Results: Evidence-Based Routines to Get Every Child Reading

About this book

With clear, classroom-tested instructional routines backed by science, teachers can confidently help their students build skills for reading success! Julia Lindsey's new book answers teachers' persistent questions about how to teach effectively in small groups, showing teachers how to identify specific "sticking points," or needs, that students typically have--and then respond with routines and methods based on empirical research. This targeted, purpose-driven approach--sometimes requiring as little as five minutes of daily instructional time--moves the needle for readers at every point on the developmental spectrum. Small Groups, Big Results offers a practical framework for planning small group instruction, plus specific, actionable assessments and teaching moves to build better readers.
