About
As students gain confidence and skills in guided reading, what is the next step to helping them become strong, independent readers? Small-group reading sessions. By working in small groups, students will be able to explore longer text and build their literacy skills with confidence. Literacy expert Gail Saunders-Smith demonstrates through the methods in this book how educators can advance students from small-group reading to silent reading, all while building reading comprehension. Ideal for teachers of emergent readers, The Ultimate Small-Group Reading How-To Book demonstrates how to develop successful readers through step-by-step, small-group reading instruction that focuses on vocabulary, comprehension, and fluency. Inside are tools for teachers to help them:
• Set up small-group mini-lessons and discussion of texts
• Provide tools for students to help investigate narrative texts
• Engage students to evaluate expository texts
• Develop students' skills in defining literary elements such as characters, setting, and plot
• And much more
Help students become independent readers with these strategies for use before, during, and after guided reading!
