We also discussed what to do if teachers have their classroom libraries organized by Levels, not Topics. How can we guide them to change?

It was shared that some schools color code their IR books and share them among all teachers to stretch budget.

We look forward to working with Deb Smith on Friday around IR and getting some of our questions answered. **Questions/ Concerns/ Requests:** We are wondering if Julie could arrange a time to film Kendra at field doing some word work instruction.

We also had some questions on progress monitoring and the RTI model. Can all schools still use AIMS web?

Finally, we would like a copy of the Procedures not Programs handout given to literacy specialists at their last meeting.

**Agenda for Next Meeting: ﻿** Will set closer to February 7th.
