My guess is you've been burned before, Niepodam.
You bought the teaching thing, you meant to use it, but it's been sitting in a folder unopened since March.
If that's what's holding you back from joining The Science of Reading Formula, stay with me for two minutes.
Because I’m guessing you have a student who read books all summer and finishes everything you hand her in about 10.5 seconds…
And you've also got a kid who’s still working out how to get from the carpet to his cubby without a detour…
Plus a couple who know most of their letters, a handful who know a few, and at least one you genuinely cannot read yet because she hasn't said a word out loud since the first day.
And you're supposed to teach all of them to read this year.
Here's the part that keeps it stuck:
You know you need small groups. It's the only way the kid who read all summer and the kid still learning his letters both get what they need.
But you're not sure how many groups to make or who belongs where.
Then there's the part nobody warns you about…
Once you finally sort them, you need a different lesson for each group, at each level, every single week, building on the last one. |
