  13. What is Guided Reading? ”Guided reading is a highly effective form of small group instruction. Based on assessment, the teacher brings together a group of students who are similar enough in their reading development that they can be taught together. They read independently at about the same level and can take on a new text selected by the teacher that is just a little more challenging. The teacher supports the reading in a way that enables students to read a more challenging text with effective processing, thus expanding their reading powers.” ~ Irene Fountas and Gay Su Pinnell

  14. Guided Reading… • is a teacher-directed activity for small groups of students with a similar need. • uses texts at the student’s instructional level to provide the necessary support and challenges during the lesson. • involves intensive teaching, with the teacher supporting students as they talk, read and think their way through a text. • involves students practicing strategies that will enable them to read independently.

  15. Purpose of Guided Reading • Teachers select books that students can read with 90-94% accuracy. • Teachers use focus or teaching points. • Students focus on comprehension, vocabulary and fluency. • Students use problem-solving strategies.

  16. Matching Books to Readers Teachers choose leveled books that… • Match their knowledge base. • Help them take the next step in learning to read. • Are interesting to them. • Offer enough challenge to support problem solving while still supporting fluency and meaning.

  17. Dynamic Grouping • Allows children to support each other • Grouped by assessments for strengths • Grouped by appropriate level of text difficulty • Promotes temporary & flexible groups • Uses a variety of leveled books • Provides for evaluation based on daily observations

  18. Teaching Tips • Please watch Modeling Guided Reading FAQ. • Take notes on the tips that would enhance your teaching.

  21. Edgewood ISD Literacy Framework • Purpose of Instructional Reading: To engage students in learning or acquiring reading proficiency at their instructional level. • Definition of Instructional/Guided Reading: Using carefully selected materials based on students’ instructional reading levels, interests, and needs, teachers work with small groups of students on things such as specific comprehension skills, reading strategies and fluency.
