Guided Reading Strategies

A teacher needs an arsenal of strategies when it comes to teaching Reading.  Something as simple as learning to think when reading needs to be modeled and taught.  Students need to assess a book before, during, and after reading takes place.  The following websites are direct links to help teachers find resources.

Adolescent Literacy --This website is geared for older readers.  The site says grades 4-12.  I teach fourth, so it was nice to see some resources geared for the upper Elementary level.

Reading Rockets--This page is similar to Adlit.org, but actually has more resources listed.

Struggling Readers--From the Reading Rockets website, it has links for assessment of struggling readers and resources to help them.  You will need to browse through the extra links for additional information.

I really love Reading Rockets.  It is a wonderful website for teachers.  There is a Topic Index that can help direct you to a problem you or your students may be facing in Reading.  I highly recommend some time exploring this fabulous resource!
