Grouping practices and reading outcomes for students with disabilities

Grouping practices, also referred to as ability/homogeneous grouping or tracking, separate students according to their perceived achievement and ability. This is done to provide instruction based on their perceived achievement/ability levels. Grouping students in this manner can lead to a ‘self-fulfilling’ prophecy of low performance.
