ELA Grades 3-5

In grades 3-5, teachers follow the Teachers College Reading and Writing Workshop Model. This approach incorporates a variety of instructional methods that focus on developing essential skills by gradually releasing responsibility from the teacher to the learner. Components of the reading workshop include mini-lessons, shared reading, guided reading, interactive read aloud and independent reading.  

Teachers have access to Words Their Way as part of their word study instruction.
