NSF in Guided Reading: Introduction by Maureen Hill https://padlet.com/maureen_hill/NSFGRIntro Share why you wanted to participate in this book study. What is one goal you have for your guided reading groups by the end of this study? en-us 2018-03-04 16:06:48 UTC 2018-06-05 19:13:19 UTC hello@padlet.com maureen_hill https://padlet.com/maureen_hill/NSFGRIntro/wish/237810586 I wanted to find ways to improve my reading group for my 3/4 group. A few of my students were stuck from BOY to MOY due to fluency and comprehension.  I hope by the end of this study I have a more targeted and intentional plan for meeting their needs so that they will grow as readers and responders to text! ]]> 2018-03-04 16:11:53 UTC https://padlet.com/maureen_hill/NSFGRIntro/wish/237810586 https://padlet.com/maureen_hill/NSFGRIntro/wish/238055604 Over the years, I have seen the struggles of our pre-readers and emergent readers.   I am excited about the strategies Jan Richardson has to incorporate into guided reading groups to meet these learners!]]> 2018-03-05 13:26:44 UTC https://padlet.com/maureen_hill/NSFGRIntro/wish/238055604 https://padlet.com/maureen_hill/NSFGRIntro/wish/248641395 I would love to find ways to strengthen my guided reading groups to make sure I am meeting the needs of my students. I am very interested in the lesson plan template and the guided reading group strategies. ]]> 2018-04-04 18:55:58 UTC https://padlet.com/maureen_hill/NSFGRIntro/wish/248641395 https://padlet.com/maureen_hill/NSFGRIntro/wish/248681160 I want to build my Word Work activity choices to meet more student needs.

 I want to make sure I am building a strong reading foundation for my students. I would like to better differentiate my guided reading groups to make sure all my students are making growth and becoming stronger readers. F. Thomas

I want to learn new strategies that will help catch up some of my students, while still pushing and challenging all to fit their individual needs. My main goal is to be making sure I am using my small group time as efficiently as possible. -K.

I want to build their vocabulary as quickly as possible while helping them learn decoding, comprehension and writing skills. I want to make the most of my time with them and target all the areas they need help with effectively. -Melissa Richardson ]]> 2018-04-06 17:34:49 UTC https://padlet.com/maureen_hill/NSFGRIntro/wish/249315365 suzanne_midgett https://padlet.com/maureen_hill/NSFGRIntro/wish/249464792 I would like to get back to what I know; my roots/foundation of teaching reading.  Thus feeling like I m teaching again.  Ultimately, my goal would be to enjoy teaching reading again.]]> 2018-04-07 20:54:01 UTC https://padlet.com/maureen_hill/NSFGRIntro/wish/249464792 https://padlet.com/maureen_hill/NSFGRIntro/wish/250056856 I wanted to participate in the book study mainly because kindergarten instruction is so new to me. After eight years in fourth it was hard to start instruction so basic and I hoped this would help give me a better idea of what my small group would look like. I want to better understand what level to meet each student. ]]> 2018-04-09 22:14:47 UTC https://padlet.com/maureen_hill/NSFGRIntro/wish/250056856 https://padlet.com/maureen_hill/NSFGRIntro/wish/256341974 I really need this refresher on Guided Reading, because it has been a few years since I was first trained in it. I welcome some fresh ideas for my reading groups and have always enjoyed my guided reading groups.  ]]> 2018-04-29 21:16:13 UTC https://padlet.com/maureen_hill/NSFGRIntro/wish/256341974 https://padlet.com/maureen_hill/NSFGRIntro/wish/256950659 2018-05-01 17:12:34 UTC https://padlet.com/maureen_hill/NSFGRIntro/wish/256950659 https://padlet.com/maureen_hill/NSFGRIntro/wish/257328034 I wanted to participate in this study because I want to know that what I am doing is researched-based and effective. I want to make every moment count in my guided reading groups. One goal for my guided reading groups is to have more word study included. - S.

I had been looking for something more concrete to use in small group reading. My goal is to have a better insight of where my students are and find the best way to meet their needs. E.

I want to make sure I am moving them towards where they need to be with the right amount of support but also challenge. With such a range of readers in first grade I feel like it’s easy to struggle with meeting each groups specific needs.This is a tool I am hopeful will take away some of that uncertainty.

I am always looking for how to strengthen the impact of learning during reading and any additional resources/ideas are helpful. -S.Voorhees]]> 2018-05-25 14:00:06 UTC https://padlet.com/maureen_hill/NSFGRIntro/wish/263645398 https://padlet.com/maureen_hill/NSFGRIntro/wish/263732127 Guided reading has always been a favorite part of my instructional day. I never struggled with my groups in K-2 but never felt like I ever quite found my groove with third graders. I'm hoping to get some new insight into using guided reading with older students as well as some new resources for managing guided reading. ]]> 2018-05-25 20:17:34 UTC https://padlet.com/maureen_hill/NSFGRIntro/wish/263732127
