Wants: I want to know specifically how we help students to become better spellers. We have many who misspell common words. I think word inquiry is valuable, but they also need to know how to spell basic, everyday words. Also, how do differentiate that spelling instruction because we also have students who don't make any spelling mistakes in their writing, and are ready for a challenge. ]]> 2020-10-21 10:45:18 UTC https://padlet.com/erinkentconsulting/FISG4/wish/848167091 erin77 https://padlet.com/erinkentconsulting/FISG4/wish/855344802 2020-10-23 10:12:50 UTC https://padlet.com/erinkentconsulting/FISG4/wish/855344802 erin77 https://padlet.com/erinkentconsulting/FISG4/wish/855345581 2020-10-23 10:13:38 UTC https://padlet.com/erinkentconsulting/FISG4/wish/855345581 Examples of Tier Two Words erin77 https://padlet.com/erinkentconsulting/FISG4/wish/864692596 2020-10-27 07:15:52 UTC https://padlet.com/erinkentconsulting/FISG4/wish/864692596 Some Criteria for Identifying Tier Two Words erin77 https://padlet.com/erinkentconsulting/FISG4/wish/864693529 EKC]]> 2020-10-27 07:16:16 UTC https://padlet.com/erinkentconsulting/FISG4/wish/864693529 Examples of Vocabulary Explorations erin77 https://padlet.com/erinkentconsulting/FISG4/wish/864694086 2020-10-27 07:16:31 UTC https://padlet.com/erinkentconsulting/FISG4/wish/864694086 One Way a Vocabulary Study Might Go... erin77 https://padlet.com/erinkentconsulting/FISG4/wish/864952390 EKC]]> 2020-10-27 09:08:47 UTC https://padlet.com/erinkentconsulting/FISG4/wish/864952390 Group # erin77 https://padlet.com/erinkentconsulting/FISG4/wish/864973357 Unit:

Also loved the breakout rooms highlighting what we remembered from our word study learning as students.
Wants: a schedule from the G4 team showing how we might effectively add word-study & read aloud in a long-term way without dropping anything else essential!]]> 2020-10-27 11:22:01 UTC https://padlet.com/erinkentconsulting/FISG4/wish/865210145 It was a huge aha moment for me to see classify words into tiers. That way we can differentiate and hopefully also collaborate with ELA and LS teachers, some students will need to be working on words at that level. But that leaves us time to focus with most Ss on the more interesting words! https://padlet.com/erinkentconsulting/FISG4/wish/865210353 2020-10-27 11:22:08 UTC https://padlet.com/erinkentconsulting/FISG4/wish/865210353 https://padlet.com/erinkentconsulting/FISG4/wish/865210767 This was really concrete and now I have lots of ideas for how I can get study started.

I am wondering how I can differentiate this work. So, the practical side, like, how do I set it up so one group has something to do while I'm working with the other group.
I don't intend to start off this way, but my hope is that we'll get there by the end of the year, and I want to start thinking about it now.
