Guided Reading

This year, we are in our second year of a very purposeful implementation of a new reading curriculum.  In previous posts, I have discussed the importance of guided reading and its ability to allow us to really support students in deeply understanding what they read.  The video, although long, is a great example of the importance of our wanting to be sure students are provided a purpose for reading, and then careful guidance, hence the name "guided" reading, to allow them the ability to really analyze text.  This class is focused on cause and effect.
