It's The Small Stuff

My Students

One of the biggest challenges in a kindergarten classroom is developing independent learners. A key part of developing children's academic independence is small group instruction.

I teach Kindergarten in an Oklahoma A+ school that values teaching to the multiple intelligences.

The children in my classroom love reading and math but are independent at a variety of levels. Small group instruction is critical in meeting each child's needs and advancing their learning.

My Project

The small group teaching easel, sound it out word stretchers, and paper trays will all be used to enhance children's small group reading and math experiences. Children work in small groups with the teacher in guided reading and math experiences that meet their individual learning needs.

Despite their differences in learning, each child deserves instruction that meets their needs while challenging their growth.

These materials will help differentiate instruction that targets children's specific learning needs in both reading and math.
