•How should I group students?•What text should I use with each group?•What strategy should I teach next?
Jan Richardson “The Next Step in GR”, 2009
BEGIN WITH ASSESSMENT
EMERGENT AND EARLY READERS• What do they know about letters, words and text?
– Letter ID (visual and auditory)– Word Reading and Writing– Text Reading (Concepts about Print and Running Record)– Comprehension Check– Writing Sample/Dictation
TRANSITIONAL AND FLUENT READERS (LEVEL I AND UP)• What strategies do they use on text? (Running Record)• What do they know about how words work? (Phonics
Assessment)• How well do they comprehend what they read?
(comprehension Rubric)
READING LEVELS (FOUNTAS AND PINNELL)
Independent Level
Text
Instructional Level Text
Frustration Level Text
Relatively easy text, with no more than approximately one error in twenty words, good comprehension. (95% success)
Challenging but manageable text, with no more than approximately one error in ten words good comprehension. (90% success)
Problematic text, with more than one in ten words difficult for the reader (less than 90% success)
ORGANIZATION
• All materials well organized• Lesson plan for each group• All lesson components covered• Pacing is adequate, stays within 20 minute timeframe• Students engaged with continuous text at the appropriate level• Teacher is listening in with each student• Small groups are differentiated
LOOK FORS AND COACHING QUESTIONS PHASE ONE
KEY POINTS TO REMEMBER DURING PHASE 1• The goal of guided reading is to move students forward in their
____________________ _______________ of text.• The components of Guided Reading include; review, ___________
__________, strategic teaching points and ____________ study.
• In the initial phase, teachers should have information about what readers do at the letter, word and _____________ level.• Students should be reading in their ________________level when in

PHASE 2: DATA DRIVEN
DECISION MAKING
S E T T I N G A F O C U S A N D P L A N N I N G T H E L E SS O N
SETTING A FOCUS AND MAKING TEACHING DECISIONS BASED ON DATA
ARTICULATING READING BEHAVIORS•What do the readers do at difficulty? When it is easy?•What do they need to do next? •What is my priority for instruction?
STRATEGIES FOR SUSTAINING READINGREADING FOUNDATIONAL SKILLS
• Emergent behaviors under control– 1 to 1, Directionality, Concepts about Print, Letter Knowledge,
Word Knowledge• Detecting and Correcting Error (monitoring)• Self correcting• Cross Checking: Searching for and Using two sources of Information• Problem Solving New Words• Maintaining Fluency
“Guiding Readers and Writers”Fountas and Pinnell, 2001
STRATEGIES FOR EXPANDING MEANING• Predicting• Making Connections• Inferring• Synthesizing• Analyzing• Critiquing

ANALYZING DATA SOURCES
Can teachers describe reading behaviors accurately?
PLANNING A LESSON• Know the reading level of the group• Choose your focus based on data • Pick a book that matches reading level and will build
on processing strengths ( may be shared for Pre A)• Read through the lens of your students• Plan intro, word work or phonemic awareness and
teaching points• Reflect: What did the students learn to do today that
they couldn’t do yesterday?
ECHOES THROUGHOUT THE LESSONMrs. K has a group of students that neglects meaning when trying to problem solve on difficult words. They try to sound everything out using visual information, but do not consider what would make sense to help them problem solve. (Running Records)They also struggle with vowel teams in the middle of words.Her focus is using meaning to self monitor, then confirm with cross checking the visual information.

____________ but also offer some _____________.
STRATEGIC TEACHING

THINK ABOUT MOVES BEFORE, DURING AND AFTER THE READING
TEACHING AND PROMPTING FOR STRATEGIC ACTION
GRADUAL RELEASE (FISHER AND FREY, 2008)
Model the behaviorPractice together
Guided Practice with feedback
Independent practice with feedback
How will you teach this behavior?
Why did you make these choices before the reading?How will they support strategic processing? How will you prompt
students?How will your reinforce students?During and after the reading….
TEACHER PROMPTS ARE A CALL TO ACTION
Teacher language should be consistent and succinct.
LOOK FORS AND COACHING QUESTIONS FOR PHASE 3
KEY POINTS IN PHASE THREE• Teacher language should be ______________ and
_____________.• Look for ______________ release in the lesson.
