Reading Groups

We have been reading a lot of realistic fiction! The third graders have been working in small reading groups. Mrs. Gholz and I joined forces and split our two classes into groups of five readers. During small group instruction, we focus on comprehension, vocabulary, and fluency skills. Each group lesson is tailored to the specific needs of the readers. The children are making great progress and I've seen tremendous growth in our readers!
