A well-structured ELA block sets the foundation for literacy growth in elementary students, but balancing reading, writing, phonics, and small group instruction can be challenging. This professional development session helps teachers design an intentional, organized, and flexible ELA block that meets the needs of all learners.
Participants will explore strategies for allocating time effectively, integrating whole-class and small-group instruction, and creating routines that maximize engagement and learning. Teachers will leave with a practical framework to structure their ELA block so that every minute supports student growth in reading, writing, and comprehension.
