Look to the Unit Overview to get the gist of the upcoming lessons in that unit. Notice that there are five small-group rotations over two weeks of lessons for the ALL Block. Accountable Independent Reading is part of both weeks’ rotations.
EL Education Curriculum 3
This Sample Calendar offers you possible student rotations for the daily ALL Block instruction. Flexibility was intentionally designed into the ALL block schedule to give teachers time to meet the diverse needs of the students in their classrooms.
