I was a "Four Blocker" when I taught Second Grade, but I
found it difficult to do so when I moved to First last
year. I had such a range of reading levels that I had to
incorporate small guided reading groups....I continued to

but the Guided Read...See More

Ok, everyone is gearing up for the new year and many of us
are already back and sweating!
What is on everyone's agenda to do "just a little bit
better" for the new school year? What are some 4B things
you've never done or just dabbled in and want to try
more? (Like Book Clubs and Three Ring Circus)...See More

I am considering the 4 blocks in my grade 1-8 class (21
students) Any advise? How do you decide the order to do

Has anyone tried using a program called Interwrite or
anything with an infocus projector when doing Guess the
Covered Word? I have scanned the passages I want to use
but can't figure out how to cover the rhyme part of the
word...any ideas?

Wow! It seems like we're all asking a lot of questions
here, and not getting many answers. I don't know if
everyone is busy with the start of the school year or if
the board has been down (which I think it was one day),
but it's like we're all in a room yelling questions at

Thank you so much! I now have the attitude, "I CAN DO THIS!"
I can't wait to get to school tomorrow! I wish I had known
about this place during the summer!

Thanks!!!!!!!

I teach reading with chapter books. Currenlty I chose 2 or
3 words per day to focus on in reading. I need help coming
up with ways to actively engage my students with the new
words. I want them to know the meaning of the words well
enough that they could use it in a conversation and have
