We have one per teacher at each grade level which works well. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Kendra Carroll Sent: Wednesday, January 25, 2012 7:45 AM To: Mosaic: A Reading Comprehension Strategies Email Group Subject: Re: [MOSAIC] fountas & Pinnell BAS
"We currently have 2-3 per grade (with 5-6 teachers). We are discovering that isn't enough. We really need one per teacher, since we do our running records at pretty much the same time (beginning/middle/end of year, and as needed for some kids)." (Melissa) I agree with Melissa. We have at one school 2 teachers sharing a kit which is more manageable but at another school 4 teachers share, and it is very hard to coordinate. If teachers are comfortable with running records, I think the transition will not be hard for them but training would still be a must. The level of questioning offered in the retell aligns with the Common Core Standards and are great thinking questions that allow the teacher to probe the student's thinking. Good luck on your endeavor!
