Since the principles build on each other, I found a lot of repeated text, but clearly that text I still felt was relevant because I gave the book 5/5 stars). In the middle of reading this book I got a call from my principal saying I was moving to first grade, so I also read the Early Reader chapter once I found that out.
Some of the information overlaps from chapter to chapter, but aside from slightly tedious it didn't bother me (ex when I first purchased this book I was planning on teaching Kindergarten, and was going to focus on the Pre A and Emergent Reader chapter. There's a brief introduction at the beginning explaining what guided reading is and why it's so important, but the bulk of the book dives into the details of the different lesson components and materials that make up the lesson based on the student's reading level. This book is a FANTASTIC resource for any elementary ELA teacher. If I remember I may update this review in the fall/ winter after I've had a chance to try/ test it out.) Richardson and her expert team of literacy consultants provide schools and school districts with customized professional development and demonstration lessons designed to equip teachers with practical and effective techniques for strengthening small-group reading instruction.(Note: Book review was written after reading the book, not after implementing what was read. Jan’s most recent work, the RISE program, co-authored with Ellen Lewis and published by Scholastic, provides a powerful, short-term, small group reading intervention with targeted, intensive instruction to help striving readers meet grade-level benchmarks.ĭr. Often called America’s leading expert in guided reading, her best-selling collection includes The Next Step Forward in Guided Reading, Guided Reading Teacher’s Companion, Next Step Guided Reading in Action, Next Step Guided Reading Assessment (co-authored with Maria Walther), Next Step Forward in Reading Intervention (co-authored with Ellen Lewis), Next Step in Word Study and Phonics (co-authored with Michele Dufresne), and Literacy Footprints: A Complete System for Supporting Guided Reading (also co-authored with Michele Dufresne).
