Research studies have repeatedly shown that reading instruction in many traditional classrooms is not designed to provide students with sufficient engaged reading opportunities to promote reading growth (Gelzheiser & Meyers, 1991)
What are the benefits of reading groups for kids?
- Motivates an increased frequency of reading
- Small group round robin reading
- Choral reading (students read aloud in unison)
- Paired reading (students read to each other)
- Echo reading (student copies teachers reading using similar tone and voice inflection)

A depressed Johnny finds work as a dispatch rider for the Committee of Public Safety, a job that brings him in touch with Boston patriots—and the excitement that will lead to the Tea Party and the Battle of Lexington.
