Revisiting The Reading Workshop (Chapters 1-3)

Comments: 0    

In the first chapter, the authors discuss the meaning and initial set up of a reading workshop.  Practically, this is a time for students to aquire their own understanding of a book, make their own predictions, and share with a buddy.  The other chapters discuss how to manage your workshops and distinquishes between traditional reading groups and the newly found reading workshop.  I do a type of reading workshop that is more age appropriate for kindergarten.  Most of my students are barely reading and writing, so we are at the very early stages of a true readers workshop.  I am going to add more of the buddy reading and buddy discussions to my readers workshop.  I am going to also try to pull in harder books for my higher students.
