To-With-By+Model 

//Teaching TO students the importance of Sequencing from the text that we read.//

//This chart is based off of the Daily 5 model and supports the To-With-By Model. Teaching WITH the students is provided during "teacher time" also known as Guided Reading. Providing students time for them to perform tasks BY themselves is provided for students during word work, listening to reading, read to myself, and writing.//

For all types of lesson plans, I implemented the to-with-by model of instruction. I learned how important and beneficial it is for students for a teacher to differentiate her methods of teaching. Regardless of the method, one should always consider this model of instruction. Every teaching approach should use: teaching TO the kids, modeling WITH the kids, and providing time for them to perform activities BY themselves. This model of instruction supports early literacy development because each topic taught is modeled, guided, and used independently. This provides students with a clear and guided process they follow each time in learning something new that relates to literacy skills. Literacy skills are strengthened when they are doing literacy activities alone, with a partner or with the class. Learning at all three angles enhances interest as well comfort in learning something new.
