Learned how crucial are phonics and decoding in facilitating guided reading for lower grades. The scope and sequence is an essential tool in identifying learning gaps in reading and decoding words.

Wants - Questions about reading groups. How long should a session last? I've been using the guideline of 15-18 minutes from previous training. What's the estimated time for students to get used to this lesson style/ pattern? How long have you found your guided reading lessons take? Would you recommend playing the FCRR games whole class to 'train' students?]]> 2022-03-02 13:35:06 UTC https://padlet.com/erinkentconsulting/13smallgroupbigimpact/wish/2073552381 Reading Group Planning Pages ekc3 https://padlet.com/erinkentconsulting/13smallgroupbigimpact/wish/2074521354 Word Recognition
