Comprehensive Core Instruction
There’s an undeniable reciprocity between reading and writing. For this reason, Collaborative Classroom offers two dynamic programs—Being a Reader™ and Being a Writer™ —that can be taught on their own or used together to form Collaborative Literacy.
Being a Reader, Second Edition (K–5)
Being a Reader’s evidence-based instruction ensures that students acquire effortless and fluent word recognition while at the same time developing skills that support comprehension of complex text.
Being a Writer, Third Edition (K–5)
Being a Writer provides comprehensive writing instruction that helps teachers build a classroom community where students learn from, support, and inspire one another as writers.
Supplemental Instruction
Not all reading programs come with the essential, targeted small-group instruction that ensures all students are being met at their points of need. To address this, Being a Reader Small-Group Reading Sets is available as a supplement to any comprehensive, whole-class reading program.
Being a Reader Small-Group Reading Sets (K–2)
Small-Group Reading Sets from Being a Reader provide easy-to-use resources to help K–2 students build and practice phonics and foundational skills, improve language comprehension, and develop independent thinking skills.
