Groups and Rotations

We are really pleased with the way our reading, writing and maths programmes are going. All students are seen in each area everyday with an ability based group. These guided group sessions are short and highly focused. The independent activities have been taught explicitly and require little to no support to allow the teacher uninterrupted teaching time with the group. 

The constant dialogue between Tara and I ensure that our groups are forever being changed to suit both academic, social and management needs. We use our in class observations, monthly running records, writing samples, gloss testing and numeracy profiles to inform our decisions about groupings.
