You learn what each individual child needs to progress in their learning. For students, they are able to work at their individual levels and pace. They are able to become the best reader they can be, which is what we want as their teachers. ]]> 2016-10-07 13:57:15 UTC https://padlet.com/tlh/rdh47vid6qi3/wish/129121584 https://padlet.com/tlh/rdh47vid6qi3/wish/129121597 2016-10-07 13:57:17 UTC https://padlet.com/tlh/rdh47vid6qi3/wish/129121597 https://padlet.com/tlh/rdh47vid6qi3/wish/129121613 Guided reading is allowing students to work at their individualized levels. This helps the students to make connections, progress at his or her own level, and participate in discussions while learning with others. The teacher is also able to work closely with students on an individual level to work to meet their needs. ]]> 2016-10-07 13:57:20 UTC https://padlet.com/tlh/rdh47vid6qi3/wish/129121613 https://padlet.com/tlh/rdh47vid6qi3/wish/129121615 Guided reading allows the students to be on an individualized level and to have them work with other students who are on a similar level. The teacher is able to focus on strategies for them as a collective group and to be able to fine tune their decoding skills. Guided reading groups are small usually 3 or 4 students and promotes the one on on attention needed for improving reading skills. ]]> 2016-10-07 13:57:21 UTC https://padlet.com/tlh/rdh47vid6qi3/wish/129121615 https://padlet.com/tlh/rdh47vid6qi3/wish/129121617 Erin 
Guided reading allows the teacher to know what reading level each student is at. It perfectly sets up a learning environment to help students succeed in any area they need. Instead of just allowing students to read whatever they want or whenever they want, guided reading shapes how students learn how to read and their deeper understanding of what literacy is and how that affects the world they live in.]]> 2016-10-07 13:57:21 UTC https://padlet.com/tlh/rdh47vid6qi3/wish/129121617 daniellesral https://padlet.com/tlh/rdh47vid6qi3/wish/129121647 Guided reading is made to meet individual needs through reading.

All aspects of balanced literacy are supported because as a reader progresses in one area, they will progress through all areas.
Students are able to read on their own ability level and progress at a pace that is suitable for them.]]> 2016-10-07 13:57:49 UTC https://padlet.com/tlh/rdh47vid6qi3/wish/129121795 https://padlet.com/tlh/rdh47vid6qi3/wish/129121900 Guided reading is where students can dig deeper into reading, on their specific reading level. It is usually in a small group. It gives the teacher an opportunity to listen to what the child is reading and gives the teacher an opportunity to correct, and assist in correcting errors they may hear. ]]> 2016-10-07 13:58:04 UTC https://padlet.com/tlh/rdh47vid6qi3/wish/129121900 https://padlet.com/tlh/rdh47vid6qi3/wish/129122474
Guided Reading is a way to provide support to readers based on the needs of the reader. The teacher can create groups based on the students abilities and provide individual instruction based on their needs. Guided Reading focuses not only on the decoding process, but also on building fluency and comprehension skills for the reader. ]]> 2016-10-07 13:59:39 UTC https://padlet.com/tlh/rdh47vid6qi3/wish/129122474 daniellesral https://padlet.com/tlh/rdh47vid6qi3/wish/129131775 Guided reading is a highly researched puzzle piece from the balanced literacy framework. Guided reading provides individualized attention to students based on their level of difficulty. Guided readings main goal is to give students proper strategies to successfully read independently. Guided reading is also great for a teacher to monitor individual progress in the classroom. Students develop self monitoring skills, comprehension skills, and reading fluency all throughout the guided reading framework. ]]> 2016-10-07 14:19:42 UTC https://padlet.com/tlh/rdh47vid6qi3/wish/129131775 https://padlet.com/tlh/rdh47vid6qi3/wish/129132167 Guided reading is a context in the balanced literacy framework where the teacher supports the development strategies of each reader, in all types of difficultly levels. Two of the main goals of guided reading is that the children will be able to successfully read independently, and it always gives them the opportunity to develop new reading strategies. During guided reading, students are gaining many new, and crucial skills that all fit together in the balanced literacy framework.]]> 2016-10-07 14:20:37 UTC https://padlet.com/tlh/rdh47vid6qi3/wish/129132167 https://padlet.com/tlh/rdh47vid6qi3/wish/129132969 Guided reading ]]> 2016-10-07 14:22:25 UTC https://padlet.com/tlh/rdh47vid6qi3/wish/129132969 https://padlet.com/tlh/rdh47vid6qi3/wish/129133391 Guided reading is a way to help children work at an individual level with a goal that will lead to independent reading. To reach this goal, teachers scaffold texts based on readers within groups as well as offer multiple strategies to students to help them read more accurately and fluently. These groups are very fluid and are based upon each child individually. Teachers observe and assess students within these groups to differentiate among students as needed.Through this process, students gain skills such as self-monitoring and problem solving so they can reach the goal of reading independently and be able understand the text. ]]> 2016-10-07 14:23:18 UTC https://padlet.com/tlh/rdh47vid6qi3/wish/129133391 https://padlet.com/tlh/rdh47vid6qi3/wish/129133579 Guided reading is a gradual process in which teachers provide minimal support on the road to independent reading. It is a socially supported activity that involves observing reading behaviors, developing reading strategies, reading for meaning, problem-solving, ongoing assessment, and ultimately developing the abilities needed for independent reading. It is the teacher's job to make decisions based on their knowledge of the students, the available texts, and reading processes. These decisions are imperative to the success of students learning to implement independent reading strategies. ]]> 2016-10-07 14:23:44 UTC https://padlet.com/tlh/rdh47vid6qi3/wish/129133579 https://padlet.com/tlh/rdh47vid6qi3/wish/129134078 Guided Reading is a teaching tool which helps students develop the skills to eventually read independently. It consists of a group of students who are on similar reading levels. They work together to unpack vocabulary, read a story, unpack details of the story, and then make connections about what they read to other texts, themselves, or the world around them. All of this is done with the support of a teacher. ]]> 2016-10-07 14:25:11 UTC https://padlet.com/tlh/rdh47vid6qi3/wish/129134078 psugirlosc https://padlet.com/tlh/rdh47vid6qi3/wish/129134856 Fountas and Pinnell say it best when they state that "Guided reading is a teaching approach designed to help individual students learn how to process a variety of increasingly challenging texts with understanding and fluency." However, guided reading is more than just this definition. It is a way to help students make connections to other texts as well as the world around them. It is a way incorporate cross-curricular content into each aspect of the day. It is a way to scaffold learning such as Vygotsky suggests with his Zone of Proximal Development. Overall, it is a way to bridge the gap between learning to read and reading to learn and this is the goal for all elementary students as well as all learners, regardless of age.]]> 2016-10-07 14:26:56 UTC https://padlet.com/tlh/rdh47vid6qi3/wish/129134856 https://padlet.com/tlh/rdh47vid6qi3/wish/129134958 Guided reading is giving support to children as they are on their journey to becoming great readers. It starts with making connections and relationships with each student that you have in a group. You become even more familiar with them over the course of your working together. Guided reading is a collaborative process between the teacher, students, and peers. Ideas and view points are bounced off each other as students learn new strategies to becoming independent reading. ]]> 2016-10-07 14:27:13 UTC https://padlet.com/tlh/rdh47vid6qi3/wish/129134958 https://padlet.com/tlh/rdh47vid6qi3/wish/129135309 Guided Reading is a format in which students are given the support they need by the teacher to allow them to be successful readers. Through observation and assessment, teachers are able to identify the students strengths and areas of needed improvement. Guided Reading gives the students opportunities to utilize their newly learned and or previously learned strategies during independent reading. Guided Reading is also a time for teachers to praise their students and to also give suggestions. Guided Reading is a relaxed time where students are focused and are immersed with support from both the teacher and other peers. It promotes celebration and aides in recognition of success. Creating and instilling genuine happiness in students for others accomplishments is something that needs to be valued. ]]> 2016-10-07 14:28:11 UTC https://padlet.com/tlh/rdh47vid6qi3/wish/129135309 https://padlet.com/tlh/rdh47vid6qi3/wish/129135349
The purpose of guided reading is to provide support to students as they develop their reading, comprehension and fluency skills. Readers are grouped together based on skill level. Texts chosen are ones that the students can be successful reading, but also with some challenge that will further help them to develop their skills. Guided Reading is looking and listening for evidence of good reading strategies and using the evidence as a "teachable moment." Guided Reading is having a "coach" with you as you learn to perfect your reading skills. ]]> 2016-10-07 14:28:19 UTC https://padlet.com/tlh/rdh47vid6qi3/wish/129135349
