The teacher I partnered with had lots of prior knowledge of SIM Routines. She is a veteran special educator and wanted to learn this routine to support her students. She is used to teaching vocabulary during instruction when students come to an unknown word. She has not formally-pre-taught vocabulary before reading a passage. The only problem she had was predicting what vocabulary students might need to know before reading because her students had varying ability levels. We talked about how using the Table could help students with individual needs when they determined a vocabulary word that they needed to know the meaning of. So the class may have different vocabulary words on their tables. We talked about how this would look during reading instruction in her small group. Students could scan a passage and circle words they needed support with and then work with her to complete the vocabulary Lincing table with their words. She was eager to get started and see how her kids enjoyed and learned from using this routine. She suspected that by using a reminder words (something she'd not done before) and having them draw a picture they would be able to retain the information longer. She drafted her table (inserted above) during our session.
