Stop spending Sunday nights rebuilding your literacy block from scratch. The Story Garden Club gives Grades 3-5 ELA teachers one complete, tiered mentor text unit every month. Open it Monday. Teach it all week. Reach every reader in the room.
Most mentor text resources give you activities. Story Garden gives you a complete tiered system. Here is the difference.
| Other Resources | Story Garden Club | |
|---|---|---|
| MTSS Tier 1, 2 & 3 supports built in | Not included You build your own small group plans separately |
Included All three tiers are inside every single unit |
| Diverse picture books centered | Inconsistent Diversity is not a design principle |
By design Every book is intentionally selected for diverse representation |
| MTSS data documentation | Not included You track data separately from your instruction |
Built in MTSS placement checklist included in every unit |
| Consistent weekly routine | Varies by unit Every unit has a different structure to learn |
Same every week FLOW framework means students learn the routine once |
| Vocabulary, discussion, comprehension, writing & exit ticket | Partial Most include some but not all five components |
All five Every unit includes all five components, every time |
| SEL check-in for Tier 3 students | Not included Social emotional support is separate |
Included Tier 3 intensive support includes built-in SEL check-in |
Every unit is built around one diverse picture book with a full week of instruction already mapped. This is what teachers open on Monday morning.
Three complete mentor text units are waiting the moment you sign up. No waiting period. Open it today and use it this week.
Choose a book that fits your theme, season, SEL focus, or skill. Vocabulary Monday, discussion Tuesday, comprehension Wednesday, writing Thursday, exit ticket Friday. Done.
Every unit follows the same FLOW structure so students learn the routine and you save planning time. Tier 1, 2, and 3 supports are already built in. No separate plan to write.
A new diverse picture book unit drops monthly. The planning is done. You just teach.
In 2022, I was teaching We Are The Gardeners to my Grades 3-5 class. I shared a moment from that lesson on Instagram. Joanna Gaines saw it and sent books to every one of my students.
The Story Garden Club is built on that same idea. One book, taught with intention, can reach every reader in your room. The FLOW framework makes sure of it. Every unit is already built around that principle.
