About two- thirds of the fourth grade students are reading below grade level. These materials will make a difference. They learn reading strategies such as looking for context clues, understanding syntax or word structure, and using inference skills, to help them read text that may be unfamiliar to them. In the small group, students can also learn from and support each other. As educators, we know promoting students who have not acquired basic skills for socioeconomic reasons is neither equitable nor effective. For students to move forward in learning, they must receive high-quality reading instruction. It is not enough to know strategies, educators must know how to put the pieces together, and that is reliant on critical thinking and effective decision making in guided reading. Ensuring that books are available to any child at any time of the year will be a good first step in enhancing the reading achievement of low-income students and an the reading achievement gap.
