Hello and welcome to guided reading! Guided reading is an essential part of any young reader's education. This is a time where they can challenge themselves to learn and grow! 

My teaching style is very encouraging and patient. I do not rush students and I do not pressure students. I believe that students learn best when they feel safe and supported, so that is exactly what you will find in my class. 

To maximize the learning in this class, I have aligned each month to cover a common core social studies theme. This means students are learning two subjects at once and more content is covered in a shorter time!

Here is what you can expect each week:

Day One: Preview the text, look for text features and complete our first read.
Day Two: Second read focused on fluency and working on increasing stamina.
Day Three: Comprehension check of the text and writing component. 

January: The Arts - What is art and where do we find it?
February: Social and Emotional Concepts -How does doing the right thing affect yourself and others?
March: Living Things and Their Environments- How can living things survive?
April: People and Places Around the World - What can we learn about different people and places around the world?
May: Earth, Sky, and Space - What can we learn about Earth and how is Earth special?


Finding the right level for your student is crucial for a successful guided reading group. This group is at level H/I.

If you are unsure of your child's level, please let me know and I can discuss it with you to make sure they are in the right class. I offer different levels, so we can find the perfect class for your learner.
