STARS texts (not to be used as a program but as support material)
The CAFE Menu breaks each component—comprehension, accuracy, fluency, and expanding vocabulary—into significant strategies that support each goal. Posted on the classroom wall and built throughout the year, it serves as a visual reminder of whole-class instruction as well as individual student goals.
The CAFE BookEngaging All Students in Daily Literacy Assessment & Instruction
Teachers use The CAFE System to assess, instruct, and monitor student progress. It provides tools for constructing group and individual lessons that provide just-in-time instruction, ensuring that all students reach their potential. The system helps teachers
establish and track the strengths and goals of each child by providing a structure for conferring;
organize assessment data and use it to inform instruction;
maximize time with students in whole-group, small-group, and one-on-one settings;
create flexible small groups focused on specific reading needs;
engage students, fostering ownership and accountability to reach goals; and
develop a common language to talk about reading development and proficiency.
