Revisiting the Reading Workshop

Chapters 1-3 introduced the idea of reading workshops and how they should be managed.  I already do a version of workshops in my kindergarten room which I have been pleased with thus far.  The ideas in the book were not aimed toward kindergarten but parts could be adapted.  I plan to incorporate more buddy reading in my book log workshop and more difficult books for my higher students.  The conferencing that I have done at this point has been more about how they feel about the work they have completed in their particular workshop, such as handwriting and illustration of the poem for the week.
