Small group instruction is an umbrella term for
intervention work. Small group instruction includes both
guided reading and strategy groups. Pulling students in
like leveled groups to support their reading challenges is
essential to moving grades 3-5 readers ahead along the
continuum for reading. It is essential to be strategic as we
plan for instruction. Using the Readers Workshop Model
as a springboard for planning intervention lessons is key
in linking whole class learning to small group instruction.
Learning Outcomes:
- Analyzing how to develop like leveled groups using previously facilitated assessments
- Using conferring to inform small groups and using small groups to inform conferring
- Determining what focus for instruction each group requires
- Delivering instruction that is specific and deliberate
- Assessing efficacy of the lesson for students through short assessments

How do we invite those students who don't identify as
writers into the critical process of writing? Students who
struggle with writing often require individualized
interventions carefully tailored to their specific areas of
weakness. This workshop will present multiple strategies
for engaging and supporting students in each stage of the
writing process.
As a result of attending this workshop, participants will:
- Recognize the importance of analyzing students’ strengths and weaknesses to inform conferences and small group instruction that is targeted to students’ specific needs
- Become familiar with specific graphic organizers and mentor texts that will serve to support student writing across a variety of genres
- Be made aware of specific writing strategies that will help lift the level of student writing
