There is a place for small group instruction in any classroom PreK-12. What are you waiting for? @wcpsmd @lavara1202

Yes! Great idea! @CarlyPumphrey @KateLongWCPS
Not quite ready for small group instruction in the middle school classroom? Start with small group rotations so students get used to timers, procedures, and independence (ish) while the teacher moves group to group to observe. Great job, Mrs. Beall!

#SoR Journey year2: A review of From Phonics to Reading by @wbny. After a quarter with our Title1 stds we have many students who are no longer at risk on DIBELS NWF and many others who are close. It has also had a moderate increase in both word reading and oral reading fluency.

Starting in November, when children in China go to KFC they will get one of my Bodhi and Friends books with their yummy chicken meal. Wish we did this in the US! What a great way to promote literacy.
