Reflection on artifact:
This artifact reflects the second small group arrangements I created this year. I feel it is a better division of my
students and their skills. At this point my groups happen to either be all boys or girls. This is something I
didnt do last year and I likely will not do all of this year. A reason I tried this out is partially due to the scores.
The scores easily led to these groups, but I had an additional motivator to try this year. I found last year that it
could be difficult to find a common book for both boys and girls to enjoy. I found a few, but thought if I tried
this arrangement out I may be able to avoid that dilemma. It seems to be successful thus far. Each lit circle
group is on their second book. When all groups finish their current book I dont plan to start a new book. It
will likely align near the winter aReading assessment. I will use these scores and student performance in class
to create the next set of small groups. I will further use the scores to guide my instruction with whole group
and small group settings.
