Lessons are not simplistic and they are for diverse learners-levels. I can
attest to their depth and breadth. As mentioned by a prior poster--they take a
while to deliver well, sometimes 2-3 days for a lesson. the more you already

WOW! Ginger, the powerpoint "Check your understanding" hit home with me.
The kids who are practicing their strategies in small group guided
reading are sharing their strategy use with one another big time. I
can't wait to share this powerpoint with their teacher. Thanks for
pointing out the power
In my current coaching cycle I am working in a 5th grade classroom. We
have put readers' workshop in place, and the teacher asked at the
beginning of the coaching cycle that we have flexible small group guided
reading going well by the end of the coaching cycle. So far, it's

approached my principal about purchasing it. He wants to be assured it is
