First Grade Teachers—Does This Sound Familiar?
📚 You have all the instructional materials…
⏳ and such a short amount of time in your ELA block.
So you’re trying to fit it all in, and the result is:
❌ Your Tier 1 block doesn’t feel cohesive (it feels like whiplash).
🌀 You’re spinning—constantly adjusting, constantly behind.
🤯 You keep defaulting to small groups because it feels like the only way to “cover it”…
😩 but you do not want to rot in small groups while whole-group falls apart.
If this is you, you’re not alone. The good news? There’s a better (and most likely easier) way.
This Is NOT a Sit-and-Get.
This is a planning session.
We will literally plan during the Bootcamp—together—using your current instructional materials.
You will come in with your teacher’s edition and leave with a real, usable Tier 1 plan that is doable, effective, and efficient.
You Don’t Need New Materials. You Need Tier 1 to Make Sense.
You don’t need another pacing guide, another add-on, or another “cute” routine.
You need a structured way to plan Tier 1 so your ELA block becomes cohesive, clear, and coherent—and student practice becomes the main event.
That’s the point of Educate’s Tier 1 Planning Bootcamp (First Grade).
🌟 What We’ll Do (Live)

3️⃣ How to use Educate’s Tier 1 slide deck structure to keep teaching tight and smooth
