Developmental levels of reading
Developmental levels of writing and word study
Instructional frameworks
Delivery models reading/writing
Assessment
Word study and structured literacy

Tier 1: Core Tier 2: Small Group Tier 3: one-one
Asset-based approach: what students can do rather than what they can’t/growth mindset
Gradual release of responsibility: “I do” “we do” “you do”
Considerations
cultural context
classroom community
importance of print/digital literacy

Vocabulary
(Taught in context of stories, 3 layers, word structure)
Comprehension
(predicting, questioning, summarizing)
