Tier 1 Planning Bootcamp (4th Grade)

Fourth Grade Teachers—Are You Feeling This Pressure Yet?

😮‍💨 Fourth grade is a pivot year.

It’s the year the reading expectations stop being “cute” and start being serious:
📚 longer texts
🧠 deeper comprehension
📝 writing that’s expected to be organized, evidence-based, and way more independent

And yes… it’s also a big testing year.

So you’re teaching while hearing this steady background noise in your head:
“Are they ready… and are we moving fast enough?”

And you’re looking at your roster like:
“Some students can read the words… but they’re not consistently pulling meaning, citing evidence, and writing in a way that matches fourth grade expectations.”

Meanwhile, your day is getting eaten alive by:
🧩 a million instructional pieces
🌀 constant pivots because time is never on your side
📊 test prep pressure without wanting to become a test-prep classroom
😩 and that familiar creep where small groups start taking over… while Tier 1 loses structure

If this is you, you’re not alone. And yes—Tier 1 can make better sense.

Because when Tier 1 gets cohesive, clear, and coherent, students change faster as readers and writers.
Not by adding more.
By using a cleaner flow that protects your time and energy—and actually moves learning forward.

This Bootcamp Is a Working Session (Not PD)

This is not “watch me talk about planning.”
We are going to plan—together—using your current materials.

You’ll bring your teacher’s edition and leave with a real Tier 1 plan you can teach immediately… and reuse next year without reinventing the wheel.

🌟 What We’ll Do (Live)

In this 90-minute live virtual Bootcamp, I’ll walk you through:

1️⃣ Educate’s 7-Step Tier 1 Lesson Plan (built for fourth grade realities)
2️⃣ How to pull the right parts from your teacher’s edition and map them into the 7 steps
3️⃣ How to use Educate’s Tier 1 slide deck structure to keep delivery smooth and consistent
4️⃣ How to plan faster without losing quality (because fourth grade time disappears)
5️⃣ How to keep Tier 1 strong during testing season—without living in small groups

Bottom line: you won’t leave with “notes.”
You’ll leave with a plan you can teach.
