    Things that I have used in the past are:

    -Leveled grouping

    -Mixed level groupings

    -Student partner choice groupings

    -Partner groupings from High students to OL high students for math and/or reading

    -One on one intensive interventions for math and reading


    I have started using more partner work in both language arts and math. The students are really enjoying working with their partners and have been really successful with the content and understanding during these sessions. I have started with teacher directed partners but we are also moving to student directed partners after some practice with procedures and expectations.


    For my small group instruction I use the following things for language arts and math:

    -Rigby Library lessons

    -Red folders from Gifted/Talented

    -Skill based lessons/practice (syllables, rhyming, segmenting, blending, heart words, spelling)-Book study with beginning chapter books (focusing on fluency, vocabulary and comprehension skills)

    -Math strategies that we teach students from Math Expressions

    -Use of practice and math tools to solve problems (number lines, manipulatives, reckenreck boards)
