Small Group Planner
Small groups are a powerful, important part of both our reading and math blocks, and it's imperative that we're organized about this time. This small group planner will be the one place that you can house all of your data, and thoughtfully plan your small groups and lessons you teach based on that data.
Why do I need this?
One of my biggest areas of disorganization in my own classroom is my small group plans and data collection. I get so swept up into the teaching portion, that I take weak notes throughout a data cycle, only to not have a firm grasp on how my students have progressed by the end of a quarter. I designed this planner to help teachers work smarter and not harder when it comes to small group planning and organizing! Research supports placing students in small groups based on their area of need, and then re-evaluating and moving their groups throughout the year as their needs evolve. This planner is designed to help you do exactly that!
