Targeted Instruction Block
An opportunity to intervene and enrich
BENJAMIN DATA DAY....a big success!
- Teachers shared data collected from various assessments (MAP, ISAT, instructional text levels)
- Students were placed on the Data Wall based on district criteria
- Grade level teams determined which students were in need of a literacy intervention and organized groups
- Assigned teachers to plan lessons, monitor progress, and document the intervention
OPTIONS FOR ENRICHING AND EXTENDING
- Author studies
- Genre studies
- Literature Circles
- Research science/social students topics
- Collaborative Reasoning
- Readers' Theater
- Class/school newspaper
- Create a magazine centered around a chosen topic
