Guided Reading: What does it look like in your room?
 * Today's Purpose:**
 * 3 day plan
 * How can we use guided reading to work on NWF and ORF?
 * Fluency ideas from Erin


 * Non-Purpose:**
 * We are not here to complain, make comments that our students can't meet these goals, have sidebar conversations or be off task.


 * Prior Session:**
 * Looked at AIMSweb data
 * Began discussing guided reading


 * Future Session:**
 * SIP plan
 * Math on Tuesday January 18th- Bring a couple KR activities that are linked to the hiding assessment to share with others.
 * Literacy needs (Next Wed. Jan. 19 - How is how-to writing developing)

Talked about how guided reading looks in our rooms. What does "Purpose Question" look like? What does it mean to the students? Why are they reading this book? Purpose: Why are they reading the book? What are you learning when you read this book? The question leads to comprehension, The purpose question would come after the reading.... Tuesdays are most everyone's running record day. Word work day is Wednesday for most of us. There is some activity (writing) the last day of guided reading. Sandi asks students where the sentence starts and ends and how many sentences are on each page. Looking at where the capital letters and periods start/end. We all incorporate our phonics lesson for the week, in our guided reading groups. (Find blend words, find word pattern words, etc.) Jenny has students do their guided reading responses or writing on sentence strips. Some of us use the Lesson Plan template for our guided reading lessons.
 * Conversation:**

Guided Reading by day: First Day: Picture Walk/Read Through Second Day: Running Records Third Day: Word Work Day Fourth Day: Retell and Writing Day Fifth Day: Make-up Day/Goal Writing (Carrie has done Goal writing)

Erin is coming to Jenny's room the end of this month and tape it so we know what exactly a guided reading week looks like.

What does it look like when they re-read for fluency? Time them while reading.

Confuses students with onset/rime vs. phoneme segmentation during guided reading/RTI.

How can we work on NWF during our guided reading time? : Just practice, go back and work, make sure we add that into our guided reading time.
