OK all you English Majors... Forgive me if this is a
simple question that a non-English Major can't answer.
In a double letter word (ex: letter, better), is one of
the double letters considered silent?
One of my bright 4th graders asked me this.

Hi everyone! My school just recently purchased the
Scholastic Guiding Reading program for all grade levels.
I have been reading through the teacher guides and I feel
that I need some clarification as to how a guided reading
lesson is actually taught. I'm not sure if I understand
this. Is the following correct or do I have everything
mixed up???? Please help if you can!
Day 1:
1. Teacher introduces the leveled book to small group.
2. Teacher and students take a detailed picture walk
through the book, discussing what may be happening and
making predictions about the story (also activating prior
knowledge/building background here).
3. Students "whisper read" the story independently at
their own pace (no round robin reading/popcorn reading is
allowed).
4. Teacher listens to individual students read quietly
and helps out when needed. Teacher also observes any
stragegies that the students are using to decode unknown
words. Not sure what exactly I need to be doing here.
Day 2:
5. Students continue reading the story if they have not
yet finished. Those who have finished should reread the
story again. Is this correct?
6. After everyone is finished, teacher and students
discuss the story together. Specific reading skills are
discussed at this time (ie. problem/solution in the story
if that is the skill being discussed).
Is this correct???? How long do you typically spend on a
leveled reader in second grade?? I thought maybe 2 days
for average and above average groups. And maybe 3 days
for my below-grade level readers. I'm not quite sure.
Please let me know. I want to make sure I am doing what I
need to do. Thank you so much for your help as always!

I am looking for some good interactive websites for 4th
grade, specifically for reading vocabulary and phonics.
Does anyone know of any?
