Small-Group Reading Instruction

A Differentiated Teaching Model for Intermediate Readers, Grades 3–8

Beverly Tyner and Sharon E. Green

Teachers at the intermediate level can now take advantage of the small-group differentiated reading model introduced to the early learning community in Beverly Tyner’s bestseller of 2004. This classroom-tested, research-based model supports reading, writing, and spelling as integrated processes.

Differentiated instruction can help you meet the needs of upper elementary and middle school students as they develop as readers. Here you’ll find

Step-by-step lesson plans on fluency, word study, and comprehension

Classroom dialogue and student work samples

Information on managing and assessing small groups

Assessment materials

Word study materials

Reproducibles

To enhance your use of the small-group model, supplementary word study cards can be downloaded. A companion video series is also available.
