Tier 1 Implementation Lab: The Midyear Reset

Reset your routines, sharpen your checks, and make the block feel doable again.

Second semester is not the time for “one more thing.”
It’s the time for a Tier 1 reset that makes the day calmer, the block tighter, and the outcomes stronger.

If your ELA block feels overloaded…
If routines change day to day…
If you’re stuck chasing confusion instead of teaching…
This lab is for you.

Who this is for

✅ K–5 classroom teachers
✅ Literacy coaches / instructional coaches
✅ K–5 school principals

Prerequisite

You need the book: Empowered to Teach and Lead: Whole-Group Literacy Instruction Made Easy
We will use the frameworks, shared language, and implementation moves from the text throughout the lab.

What you get

🎧 On-demand prerecorded seminar (listen + relisten while you implement)
📍 Live kickoff to align and decide what to stabilize first
🎙️ 5 days of 1:1 walkie-talkie coaching so you can implement with real-time support (voice notes + quick back-and-forth)

What we’re resetting (and why it works)

🔥 Coherence — a Tier 1 system that actually carries the weight
🔥 Routines — same flow, same language, same expectations
🔥 Real-time checks — quick evidence you use immediately to adjust instruction
🔥 Student practice — more successful reps without stacking supplements
