Notes
During our second coaching meeting, Melinda and I reviewed her literacy schedule, current small-group instruction, and student needs. We agreed to focus on her four-student fluency group, with an emphasis on accurate reading, meaningful phrasing, appropriate pausing, and expression. We discussed differences within the group, including students reading approximately 75–85 words per minute and students who read more quickly but tend to rush. We explored brief teacher modeling, targeted word practice, and supported partner reading within her existing 15-minute small-group time. Our next steps are to review individual FastBridge baseline data, finalize measurable goals and attainment indicators, and use her existing three-week progress-monitoring schedule alongside brief reading samples to evaluate growth and adjust instruction.
