Small group instruction is one of the most powerful tools in your teaching toolkit, but forming effective groups early in the year can feel overwhelming. You’re still learning who your students are, what they know, and where they need support… often with little to no data to guide you.
That’s where ESGI can help.
Start Strong with Real-Time Insights
Instead of relying on early classroom observations, ESGI gives you real-time data about what each student knows and is ready to learn next. In just minutes, one-on-one baseline assessments show you exactly where each student stands on foundational skills.
Quickly Create Meaningful Groups
The Item Analysis Report does the heavy lifting by organizing students by skill level, so you can easily see who’s mastered a concept and who still needs support. Pair it with the downloadable spreadsheet to sort and group students for targeted instruction, learning centers, or intervention groups.
You’ll be able to:
- Understand what skills need to be retaught to the entire class
- Group students with similar skill gaps
- Plan enrichment groups for those ready to move ahead
Empower Independence with the Assignment Center
For First- and Second-Grade teachers, ESGI’s Assignment Center is a game-changer. Once you’ve identified students who are ready for independent work, you can assign assessments, giving you time back to work with small groups while students continue progressing at their own pace.
Set Yourself Up for Success Now
With ESGI, planning small groups becomes less work with bigger impact. By starting with clear data, you’re giving your students the individualized support they need.
