In her previous books, "Literacy Work Stations" and "Practice with
Purpose," Debbie Diller showed teachers how to productively occupy
the "rest of the class" while meeting with small groups. Now Debbie
turns her attention to the groups themselves and the teacher's role
in small-group instruction. "Making the Most of Small Groups"
grapples with difficult questions regarding small-group instruction
in elementary classrooms such as: How do I find the time? How can I
be more organized?How do I form groups? How can I differentiate to
meet the needs of all of my students?
Structured around the five essential reading
elements--comprehension, fluency, phonemic awareness, phonics, and
vocabulary--the book provides practical tips, sample lessons,
lesson plans and templates, suggestions for related literacy work
stations, and connections to whole-group instruction. In addition
to ideas to use immediately in the classroom, Debbie provides an
overview of relevant research and reflection questions for
professional conversations.
