Thank you for expanding upon this. I’m a brand new special education teacher and having learning disabilities of my own so reading is something I struggle to do let alone teach 🤣🤣. This concept is very helpful and important. Also, both of your eyes are just radiating bright blue light it’s gorgeous.
Say it louder
Love this process of teaching smoothness!

Do you have an example of one filled out? Would love to see how it all connects.. Unfortunately, we don't have a core reading program. Any tips for weekly planning without one? I do have Storyworks and Scholastic News. :)
Download the freebie here and there’s a filled in example. www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/FREE-Weekly-Planning-Template-for-Reading-and-Writing-Instruction-4577559?aref=zlhzhmnl Are you given a scope and sequence of anything? You could start by finding a scope and sequence for phonics. Then for comprehension, use the texts you have access to and plug them in throughout your year. Double check that the complexity of the texts are appropriate for your grade/time of year (Lexile levels)- this is important for instruction. Build your vocabulary and fluency lessons using those comprehension texts. For more text, getepic.com, ReadWorks, and Reading AtoZ are some great options.
just bought it, how do I get Dibels material. The Diblel site is now a new, form when you publish this material, there is no 6th Edition online.
Is there a rule about dividing a word into syllables with a schwa?
Thank you for the video! You guys are easy to follow.
Teachers deserve to be paid like movie stars- I am not even speaking to the amount of work and sleepless nights they endure to prepare lesson plans, but just their contributions to society, and our children's learning alone, merits them getting the increase. It's time for us to see the value in these awesome people and pay them accordingly.
This is the most explicit explanation of the Gradual Release Process I've ever seen or heard! So incredibly helpful! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. I'm going to rewatch this video and take some detailed notes. I really appreciate you taking the time to share such valuable content with us. You're amazing!
Thank you! Glad it is helpful :)

You're over-simplifying too much by only teaching that schwa makes the /uh/ sound. There are tons of words where schwa makes more of an /ih/ sound rather than /uh/: -- basket (baskit), bonnet (bonnit), ballad (ballid). It's not that confusing to teach students that schwa occurs when a vowel makes a lazy sound that is different than its typical short sound, and that it typically sounds like /uh/ or /ih/.
Thank you for being thorough yet concise. Good info!
Reviewing again. Is tier 2 special education or general eds?
General Ed
Would you be able to share what your centers look like? Which are independent and which are with a partner? Do you use a rotation board or do they choose? Are buddies assigned? And how long is each center and how many groups do you see each day?
Hey! Every year, depending on the class, my (Whitney) centers looks slightly different. I have a buddy reading center, but otherwise they are independent practice. Depending on if there are a lot of pulls outs or not, I do like to assign buddies when it works out. But some years it just doesn’t work due to scheduling issues. I’ve done rotation boards two ways- teacher placed into rotations or student choses the order about monthly with a limit on how many students can be a center at once. The last couple years I’ve trained my students to self pace themselves and I call groups back. I love the self pacing because it naturally differentiates the time need for students and teaches a lot of good independent practice skills. Some students need more or less time on certain centers and I like that self pace allows for that. It’s hard to train in ways that rotations aren’t, but I love the empowerment it provides and then it saves hours of figuring out the rotations. I I also prefer to call groups back to allow myself the flexibility of time. Some groups need more or less time with me- so I love it for that. I attempt to get 2 hours tier I literacy instruction with 1 hour small group/tier II instruction. My group times range from 10-15 minutes typically. Hope that helps? What do you do?
Thank you! :-)
You're welcome! Thanks!
right? you explained not one thing.
I just watched a bunch of you and your friends videos on CZcams.
Do you have any info to share on your jottings or genres posters under your smartboard? Thanks so much!!
Not yet!
Here's a link to the fabulous article though... :) ila.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1002/trtr.1666
We don't have a core reading program...:( makes it so much harder as I find I have to create everything. How would you suggest creating a yearlong scope and sequence for teaching comprehension and vocabulary? Can this strategy instruction work if we can only do through read aloud since we won't have copies of the text for every student?
you two are great
thank uuuuuuuu
Hi there! I have just come across your videos and am learning so much! Question... I have heard that students don't really know a high frequency word unless they can read AND spell it.. What are your thoughts about that? What do you do for instruction/practice with spelling those high frequency words?
I think we answered this in a email.. just going through youtube comments :)
Are both available?
Yep! Click the dropdown for the link in the description
Where can I find the diagnostic drill down assessment?
Here you go! www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/How-to-Use-the-Reading-Components-4646185 And this may help as well: www.thesimpleteachers.com/reading-assessment
Are you using the text that was used in whole group? Is it grade level text? I was wondering if you use grade level text within your small groups, even if they are reading below benchmark?
Yes, reusing tier 1 text. It depends what I’m intervening on in small group, for phonics intervention we use a decodable, for fluency either a reread from tier 1 or be slightly lower than the current grade level text, for comprehension using grade level text.
Do you recommend teaching fluency as a unit to the whole group and then in small groups for those who still need more practice with it? Or do you do it a different way with the whole group? I did ask this question before finishing the video...lol. You did address it, but I am wondering if you would do a whole group lesson with fluency weekly with shared reading material (We don't have a core reading program) or a whole unit dedicated to fluency and then reinforce throughout the year?
Yes, teach fluency as a routine reading component during tier 1 instruction. Then those who aren’t at benchmark in fluency may need a fluency intervention. Reusing your main selection and/or phonics decodable texts is a great way to get rereads in with a different purpose! :)
What about the duration pf each intervention? How do we collect data?
3-4 weeks for an intervention. Continue progress monitoring their fluency to make sure they are making adequate growth showing that instruction is effective. Use diagnostic assessments (perhaps a phonics diagnostic) to continue filling any holes as needed. Hope that helps.
You didn't explain anything. Please explain in videos that say they explain
I love your videos! I am a new teacher, and these videos are so helpful! Are you using a curriculum? If so, which one? Or are you creating your own lessons and procedures?
We use whatever core reading program the district uses. However, we plan our instruction making sure we are text focused and have lessons in phonics, vocabulary, fluency, comprehension, and writing every day. So we plan with that in kind and use the program to plug in text and objectives. When needed, we supplement with other text.

Thank you so much for this excellent Video! Where is the role of Special Ed? Teacher and /or resource teacher here?
Tier 3 for sure!
Thank you for your channel!
Thanks for watching!
Please let me i say that you I love you so much
I desperately need the supplies to do this. Any thoughts? I'm looking for anyone with extras that are willing to donate or share.
Start a www.donorschoose.org/! But until then, keep it simple and get creative!
Thank you so much. I greatly appreciate the 2 of you.
About how long do you spend with each group?
Typically 10-15 minutes.
I'm still watching from since three years I love you so much
Wow, thanks!
Can I see your daily schedule? I really feel like our school has the least amount of instructional time in the entire country…lol
I have a 3 hour block in the morning 2 days a week (with a 10-15 minute recess) and a 2:15 block 2 days a week. Our afternoons are the same, but assemblies, school-wide activities, etc get pushed to the afternoons - so on a weekly/monthly basis afternoon instructional times gets taken away. Fridays we are out at at 12, but we typically have at least 2 hours with the additonal school-wide things that get thrown in on Fridays. I share a classroom and teach the AM block (reading) and my awesome co-teacher teaches the PM (writing, math, and STEM). Hope that helps! A 3 hour block is so needed for literacy! That why my co-teaches takes on writing while we are in 2nd because I need all the time in reading and we just don't get time to write. So she integrates reading to writing or STEM to writing units.
@@TheSimpleTeachers Could you share what your reading instructional times might look like in the morning? And maybe what independent stations/centers look like during your small group time? Do you teach 2 20 min. groups and what are the others doing during that time? Do you use a rotation schedule or a must do/may do model? I also wonder if you have very fluid groups or groups that you follow a schedule with..Thanks so much! The more I watch of your videos, the more I learn, but also the more questions I have! LOL
I’m going through this with my kindergartener and she is currently in a Tier 2 small group. Her school has put her on the possibility of retention list and the end of 2nd quarter is in January 2023. This is helping me understand the breakdown of what the school is doing with her. Question: When you have a child in Tier 2 or 3 do you provide extra homework of what you are working on in class? My child school will not provide it to me.
Glad this helped you. Thanks for your comment and question. I'm currently teaching 2nd and I send home text we've read in tier I or tier II instruction to have them read again at home each week.
Why was I taught that vowels have TWO sounds…when I always knew (as a kid) there were more? We learned about Abraham Lincoln with “Abraham” having three A’s …with 3 different sounds. NOT ONCE did teachers, parents or administration ever mention this SCHWA thing! I thought myself a confused young person but I am beginning to suspect that my friends and I were always right: Those that can’t do, teach. Those that can’t teach…teach English and Gym!
Love this comment! Thanks!
Wonderful! Greetings from Mexico.
Sorry good job
Bad job
Thank you for this video.
Your content is well appreciated. Notice you dont have any videos on how to do the assessments
Perhaps this video would help with Oral Reading Fluency? czcams.com/video/_e8FrrkKsJo/video.html
