    We are in our 3rd year of Into Reading and yes, it’s a lot…many manuals and if your districts purchases them, many workbooks! We’ve put a lot of work into recreating slides to fit our flow of the day which helps. Writing has been a struggle, so I’m really interested in hearing what you think after the first few weeks!

    This is our first year of Into Reading and we are getting into a groove, but I'm looking forward to hearing your take. Personally I like Fundations better for phonics, but I like the literature choices and all the options for small group instruction from HMH. It takes a lot of work to figure it all out though!

    My school district also uses HMH Into Reading - 3rd year now. I don’t like the writing part of their program. I was wondering if you’re using your own units of writing? I’m thinking of purchasing the first grade bundle and just ditch the Into Reading.

    We have Into Reading. I don't look at the manuals because they are overwhelming. I just look at it online. I am curious to hear your opinion. My problem is there are so many resources to use not enough time to get to it all. Yes no letter tiles, I had to get a set from Lakeshore. We still miss Heggerty at our school I think that program was much better.

    Hi Susan,
    EL has multiple components, the modules, skills block, and labs. The modules of EL is not a "reading" program. It is more for close reading and writing. My school only uses the modules. We also do Heggerty and Fundations, as well as decodables, for our ELA. The skills block is the reading component of EL. I've been teaching with EL for the past 5 years in 2nd grade in NYC and teachers definitely need to supplement the modules to make it more engaging and to provide support to all learners. Many districts across the city have been using HMH since last year and I've heard not great reviews. Looking forward to your take on it.

    • @SusanJonesTeaching
      @SusanJonesTeaching  Месяц назад

      Hi! Yes, that is correct! We were using Fundations and Heggerty as our main "reading" components, I was overgeneralizing. We piloted only the Modules for our knowledge building and comprehension strand. We didn't find that it was sufficient enough! I'll be interested to see how HMH goes too!

    Susan,
    If I could only be a fly on the wall in Your Classroom to see what it was like teaching on and after Halloween.
    Anyhow, Way to go with the whole "Peaceful Spot" thing having them thinking about what they could do when they get mad or sad especially when kids don't have as much choice in their lives as the adults do even in a free country in which we are living in.
    Keep on handling it like a champ.
