Small group direct instruction (SGDI) involves using a systematic teaching procedure (here: progressive time delay) to teach more than one child. Benefits of small group instruction include increased teaching efficiency and improved social opportunities. SGDI has been shown to be highly effective for a variety of learners and may be less complex than embedding instruction into typical play routines.
