Overview

In Small Groups for Big Readers, the authors advocate for small-group reading instruction as an effective way for teachers to help all students grow as skilled, developing readers. Through small-group instruction, K-5 teachers can differentiate instruction by using evidence-based routines, adopting an asset-based lens, and selecting texts tailored to students' unique interests, needs, and goals, creating deeper engagement in reading.


K-5 teachers can use this book to:
  • Understand and apply evidence-based routines that promote equitable, accessible literacy instruction
  • Enhance students' reading and knowledge building through carefully planned interactions and opportunities with text
  • Empower students by establishing clear goals and guidelines for small-group lessons
  • Plan for extended learning opportunities that provide sufficient, deliberate practice for literacy development
  • Extend professional expertise by selecting and adapting strategies to differentiate literacy instruction, using a flexible, choose-your-own-adventure format to customize learning based on individual goals and needs
