Abstract

In 1992, Fielding stated: "One of the by-products of the movement toward increased instructional use of children's literature is that teachers are reexamining the different grouping patterns that are possible for elementary reading instruction" (p.26). Much discussion in the literature has been based on the pros and cons of placing students into groups and the criteria upon which grouping decisions should be made (Harp, 1989). Consequently, there is substantial literature that describes a variety of grouping arrangements and attempts to examine their effectiveness (Otto, Wolf, & Eldridge, 1984).
