The instructional guide provides
a comprehensive view of the instructional program for
a specific grade level. The guide includes model sample
lessons with a suggested plan for delivering an identified
cluster of indicators. The lesson sequence includes:
- Enduring Understandings
- Essential Questions
- Indicators
- Checking for Understanding
|
 |
The lesson delivery is sequenced into before reading,
during reading, and after reading sections. Whole group
and small group instruction is modeled. Daily small
group instruction is expected. The small group instruction
provides opportunities for students to apply what has
been taught. It is also an opportunity for teachers
to re-teach skills as needed. Reading and writing lessons
are interrelated and should be taught in an integrated
fashion. The guide provides for this integration.
The
instructional guide provides a organizational plan
for the entire school year. The reading/language
arts guides are organized by school year quarters.
