Reading Wings is an upper elementary reading program for students reading at the second grade level and beyond. As a comprehensive curriculum, it provides a collection of powerful instructional processes that engage students in their reading skills and encourages cognitive collaboration.
The basis of student progress in Reading Wings is cooperative learning. Students work in small, mixed-ability learning teams to achieve a common goal. The students in each team are responsible not only for their own learning, but also for helping teammates learn. Teams receive team celebration points for quality responses, fluent reading, and good meaningful sentences throughout the lesson. Team celebration points are tallied publicly on a classroom poster so teams can see their success.
Team Huddle is a technique that allows the opportunity for students to process information and discuss answers to questions in teams before sharing with the whole group.
