What is the Guided Release of Responsibility? (GRR)

• Students take control of their learning through 4 clear steps:
• I do (Focused Instruction)

• You do together (Collaborative Instruction)
• You do alone (Independent Work)

All four instructional components are completed each day. My lessons include a very clear explanation of what you, as the teacher, will do in each portion of the lesson. I've also included a start-up guide to help you understand how the Guided Release of Responsibility Instructional Framework works.
