Post: Treasures Reading Series with Guided Reading Time
Posted by Christy on 6/29/08
For those of you who use the Treasures series, how do you
implement it with your GR block. The series basically has
a short intro story to introduce on vocab (which is in the
basal as well as a transparency), the main reading
selection, and then a shorter connecting text.
I will be teaching departmentalized (flexibly grouped)
reading classes to 3rd graders, with each class lasting 60
minutes.
I was thinking of structuring my time like this: (tell me
what you think please).
Writing will be done outside of the 60 minute reading
block.
Word Work - 15 minutes daily
Monday - word wall skills
Tuesday - using words you know part 1 ( 1 syllable words)
Wednesday - using words you know part 2 ( multi syllable
words)
Thursday - Making Words - buiild
Friday - Making Words - sort and transfer; Reading writing
complex rhymes
Guided Reading: 20 minutes
Monday - Shared reading of 1st vocab story using guess the
covered word
Tuesday - review vocab through powerpoint/ smartboard
sentences
Read main selection in shared format form to complete
graphic organizer for skill strategy
Wednesday - Review main selection story through beach ball
actvity
work in pairs to complete skill strategy
Thursday - Read shorter connection story whole group, make
connections
Friday - Unit Assessment test
20 Minutes - Leveled Reading -Small groups/ Individual
Conferences/ Daily Five (read to self and possible listen
to reading if I can get some books on tape)
So does this look doable?
