SHARE THE FOLLOWING TIG TIME INFORMATION:-GRADE LEVEL/S IN EO GROUP-ABILITY LEVEL-WHAT YOU TAUGHT TODAY
TIG TIME DEFINITION A designated time (45 minutes) during the
elementary school day designed for providing differentiated targeted instruction (TIG) to groups of students. TIG time is scheduled at the same time, every day, across grade levels, or grade level clusters. During TIG time, children may leave their homeroom to receive instruction in a different room, from a different teacher. Usually, ELD, reading interventions, or reading and writing enrichment are offered during TIG time.
TIG (TARGETED INSTRUCTIONAL GROUPING)
In the Jefferson Elementary School District 45 minutes (30 minutes on Wednesdays) of TIG/ELD is scheduled daily.
TIG is a time for students to be grouped homogeneously.
ELD groups are made based on CELDT data. Teachers will use the Language Central curriculum
and EL daily routines and Weekly Planners as they deliver their ELD program.
Teachers will use the Pearson core program and ancillary materials during TIG for their EO students.
Use CST data, diagnostic assessments, unit analysis data and benchmark data for EO groups.

WHAT IS IN THE EXTRA SUPPORT MANUAL?
Materials that reinforce and extend the daily lesson.
Instructional opportunities to increase background knowledge and reteach prerequisite skills.
Pre-teaching and re-teaching of lesson skills. Additional practice in key skills and strategies
taught in the daily lesson. Additional opportunities for vocabulary and
concept development. Additional opportunities for checking for
understanding.
WHAT’S IN THE READING INTERVENTION KIT?
The Placement Tests in the kit will pinpoint the specific skills in each area of which a child needs intervention.
The “Interpreting the Results” for each test will direct you to the lessons to use with the children.
Intervention lessons are in the areas of Phonemic Awareness, Phonics and Decoding, Fluency, Vocabulary and Comprehension.
In determining the child’s placement in the intervention lessons, also consider the child’s performance on classwork and assessments. For some students the daily Extra Support lessons will be sufficient to provide the boost they need to meet grade level benchmarks. For those who need more intensive intervention, use the Intervention Kit.
WHAT IS THE INTENSIVE VOCABULARY KITS (GRADES K-3)?
The purpose of these materials is to increase the oral vocabulary of students with limited vocabulary.
The lessons correspond with the Unit and Week you are teaching.
The Teacher’s edition has a weekly five day lesson plan of daily 15-20 minute lessons, designed for explicit, sequential, systematic instruction in vocabulary.
The kit included Read Alouds and color vocabulary cards.
