In the years since this video my school has changed our structure quite a bit. I will be making a New/Updated video in the coming month to explain this more and share resources ❤️ We flex for reading groups so 1 teacher has high intervention (kids 2+ years below), 1 teacher has intervention (1 year behind), 1 teacher has on 2nd grade level student and we have an other teacher who takes all the students who are reading high above grade level. Each teacher focuses on phonics concepts students need in alignment with SOR in addition to components of a classic reading group structure. The word work lists come from the weekly phonics concepts being covered in each group.
YAY! Thank you for posting this! We have a new team member on my First Grade team this year that came down from 5th grade math. I was explain reading groups to her and I love that you included the resource in the description so I could share it with her. I hope it helps her this year!
thank you so much for this! I introduced daily 5 to my kids last year pretty late because I was hired late and didn't get the training until later! This year I'm going to use your schedule to pick up the pace and keep us on track!
This was fantastic in so many ways! However, I am so confused with the daily schedule you provided. I thought you were rotating between one day (indep rdg and word work) and the next day (tech and writing). Are you taking red and green together (for teacher group) on rotation 1 on Mondays and then blue and yellow together for teacher group for R2? Also, is the independent reading a.k.a the teacher group?
Thank you so much for doing this video!! It was super helpful and I learned so many great nuggets from you. Can't wait to work on building my students' stamina. Keep up the great work!!
I love this! I’ve been wanting to change how I do stations for a while now and I love this setup! What do you do for students who finish word work before the time is up? Or do they do as many word work activities that they can in that time?
Hi Kayla! I not longer run my centers this way due to some changes at my school however all of this advice is still super applicable! When students in word work finished early I would have them complete work from their unfinished folder or they could work on another technology app (Epic, RazKids, iReady, Boddle).
This was so helpful and informative. Thank you! Can you please explain more about how materials are organized and how students access them for each center?
So…two years late, but our school is implementing a daily 3 that will include word work. My question for you is how do the students know which words to use for word work pages? Do they have spelling or phonic conceopt lists that you have to manage daily/weekly?

Thank you, I forgot to mention! In my last vlog I talked about how I find my students phonics levels using the words their way spelling inventory and then each group has a different spelling list thats on their level. Make sure to check that video out for more info!
Super helpful thanks so much for explaining everything so clearly. Was curious if you would do a video in the future on the structure and curriculum you use in your small group reading? Thanks!
Thank you for watching!! I try to be really detailed and go in-depth on our day to day routines in my vlogs so be sure to check those out! I'll be vlogging this whole week so I'll be sure to film updates on our reading group structure! 🤗
I found your video great. The scenery is so beautiful. Wish I could go there once. Thank you so I found your video great. The scenery is so bea. I like too. Good like tooooo@@@₫””₫’
Hey! I loved your video, it was so informative for a first year teacher looking to make some changes to my reading centers. I am wondering, do your students turn in their word work/writing or do they put them in a reading center folder/notebook?

This is so helpful! I've needed this. What words do you use for WW? Is it HFW or spelling words or what? 💗

How do first and second year teachers seem like they have so much experience!? I feel like I would have no idea what I’m doing…😅
What are voice level expectations during this time?
