Description

Learning a new skill or strategy follows a predictable sequence known as the Instructional Hierarchy. As students build proficiency with a skill, it’s important to consider how we can build purposeful opportunities for practice. In this video, learn how grade 2/3 teacher Laura Bross uses partner reading in her class.

  1. Was a great introduction to partner reading. Thank you so much for framing the content within the Instructional Hierarchy and referencing the importance of cognitive overload.

    1. Hello @Anne H!
      That is a great question. I use the Oral Reading Fluency measures with Acadience. Three times a year, I use the grade-level benchmark assessments. Then, with my students who are below benchmark, I will progress monitor using the aligned progress monitoring tools every 2-3 weeks. I can use a combination of this data to reflect on the effectiveness of my instruction and create data-based fluency partners. 🙂
      Hope that clarifies! 🙂

  3. Thank you for this explicit and well-designed webinar! Do you have students who are significantly below grade level (could be due to missed school, ELL, etc)? If yes, how do accommodate them during partner reading?
