Make Small Groups Count: Keep Reading & Math Support Organized
Easily see who you’ve met with—and who needs attention next
Small-group and workshop instruction can be incredibly effective, but it’s also hard to track who you met with and when. Tiimli brings clarity to the chaos by showing exactly how often you sit down with each student. During guided reading time, for example, you might confer with four different students. With Tiimli, you can tap a student’s name, start the session, and move on. At the end of the week, you’ll have a clear picture of your conferring patterns.
In reading workshop, teachers often struggle to keep track of which students they’ve coached individually. Maybe you met with Emily three times last week but only saw Noah once. Tiimli helps you identify these gaps. When you open the app, your student list quickly shows who has had the most—and least—1:1 time. This makes it easy to adjust your schedule and ensure every student receives the attention they need.
The same is true for math groups. Imagine you run four differentiated math stations and rotate students through them. When a student needs extra help with fractions or place value, Tiimli lets you log that additional 1:1 support. Over time, these records help you recognize trends—such as noticing that you consistently reteach multi-step word problems to a particular student. These insights help shape your small-group planning and instructional decisions.
Tiimli also brings peace of mind. Instead of relying on memory or sticky notes to track who you supported, the data is neatly organized for you. It means fewer surprises, more intentional teaching, and better outcomes for your students.
