Teachers design many whole group and small group guided reading lessons each week. The goal of this workshop is to make this job easier. Teachers and the facilitators will guide teachers through making easy prepared lessons based on a continuum of learning.

• Teachers will bring copies of leveled books from their own classrooms.

• Using the continuum, teachers will develop "make & take" packets to have ready for small groups.

• Copies of all guided reading packets will be shared for others who attend.
