After two, 3rd graders read together during "Paired Reading", I told them they were doing a great job. They looked at me like I had just passed gas. My expectations were silly to them. In their school they read books every day. Together. Many of us adults need to recalibrate.
When choosing curriculum, you want to hear two main things. Student achievement results and usability. "Usability" sounds like this 👇
@AH_Humphrey @KJWinEducation @KatieKMcGuire1 @mrjergenskinder @UFLiteracy @ELeducation @WitWisdomELA Once you get the hang of UFLI it is super easy to plan and implement. I find I can easily be responsive to my students (many ESL) but taking a moment to define and also eliminating words that may be too abstract for them. Easy to implement, excellent results.
