Systematically Observing Students' Reading Behaviors And Planning For Effective Instruction

The Continuum of Literacy Learning: A Guide to Teaching
The Continuum of Literacy Learning: A Guide to Teaching (Fountas and Pinnell, 2007) can be used as a bridge between assessment data and the specific teaching that students need. With assessment, you learn what students know; the continuum will help you think about what they need to know next.
Topics At These Two- and Three-Day Institutes Include:
- Understanding the Benchmark Assessment System
- Utilizing the Fountas and Pinnell A-Z Text Gradient
- Administering the reading records, comprehension conversations, fluency and word study assessments
- Analyzing and using the assessment results
- Connecting the results to the Fountas and Pinnell Continuum for Learning
- Teaching for Comprehending and Fluency
- Understanding instructional and grouping implications
