While there will be no more readers conferences, that format will help you because your small groups will be flexible based on data. The data you will use to make decisions about instruction will be based on VALLSS, STAR Reading, and other MyView Assessments.
Small Groups do not mean Guided Reading either. The groups will be fluid based on data so that students get exactly what they need instructionally. Throughout the year, you will learn more about small groups and how they will be build around systematic, explicit instruction and incorporate lots of student practice followed by progress monitoring to ensure the instruction is working!
In the meantime, MyView provides a lot of options for small group. We will learn more about these resources and plan for small group with reading coaches and SpEd Inclusion teachers during weekly planning sessions.
* The TE (Teacher's Edition) has small group lessons that will support core instruction for students who need extra for the week's skills. Think of this as differentiation for core instruction for all students.
* The My Intervention Book also supports core instruction and is grouped by skill. Think of this as a tier 1 or 2 intervention.
* The Reading Routines Book has lessons to remediate specific Foundational Reading skills such as phonics, fluency, and vocabulary. Think of this as a tier 2 or 3 intervention.
Beyond MyView, there are two resources we can use to supplement small group instruction.
* UFLI Foundations
