What is Guided Reading?


Guided Reading is a teaching approach designed to help individual students learn how to process a variety of increasingly challenging texts with understanding and fluency.
The aim of guided reading is to develop independent readers who question, consider alternatives, and make informed choices as they seek meaning. -Margaret Mooney Guiding Readers and Writers Fountas and Pinnell

What is the Continuum of Literacy Development?


Students behaviors help us to determine their stage of development or how far they are along the literacy continuum. This helps us to determine appropriate instructional practices.
There are six stages: 1. Pre-Emergent 2. Emergent 3. Early 4. Newly Fluent 5. Fluent 6. Proficient
