Students Grouped by Ability

Source: ASCD SmartBrief

A program headed by Success For All is beginning to expand around the country that emphasizes the study of phonics at the start of every student's education.  This program won a major grant from President Obama's education intitiatives. Success for All encourages classroom teachers to follow a detailed plan that stressed collaboration, oral expression, and frequent assessment.  Students will be grouped based on ability level rather than age.
