Do you use small groups as part of your classroom instruction?
What do you call them? Learning stations? Work centers? Small groups? Independent work time?
Whatever you call them, your small groups need a structure.
Students need to know your structure or routine so that your small groups can run effectively and efficiently.
Imagine your admin coming into your room and your small group time is running smoothly. Even better, your students know the expectations when they are asked.
So, how do you get there? You plan and prepare!
- What will students do in the small groups?
- How will they know when to move to the next small group?
- Is there a rotation or do students have choice of where to go?
- How do students know when to begin and end the small groups?
- Do you use a signal or a timer?
- Have students practiced the small group structure?
- Do students know small group expectations?
- What do students do after the small group time?
In my FREE workshop you will learn how to answer all these questions and more!
