The “Big 5” in 5: Intensifying Reading Instruction through Brief Instructional Routines
When students are not demonstrating adequate response to reading instruction—especially at Tier 2—educators often struggle with what to do next. This session will share a suite of customizable reading lessons aligned to the “Big 5” areas of phonemic awareness, alphabetic principal or phonics, fluency, vocabulary, and comprehension. The brief, research-based lessons are intended to supplement reading interventions, programs, or curricula that are currently in place.
