Idea 1: ILA Standard # 3.2
Description of Idea: After Students are finished reading in your
guided reading group have students complete a comprehension check
such as a five finger retell where students list the setting, characters,
problem, solution, and what happened at the end of the story. This can
also be modified if there is not a problem and solution where students
can list details from the story.

Idea 2: ILA Standard # 2.2
Description of Idea: Have 2-3 options for students when going to
word work and writing in order to scaffold lower-leveled learners and
extend or challenge above-leveled learners. Assign students colored
bins at those two stations to ensure that they are getting the support
they need. This differentiation is important because while some
students are working on mastering sight words, others are working on
making CVC (consonant, vowel, consonant) words. This will also
encourage students who are able to write a sentence or two to not
rush by simply writing a word and drawing a picture at the writing
center.
