I am supporting a grade 4 teacher this year. She wants to start the year off

Thanks,
Carol

I have always taught 1st grade and have had a great system in place for
taking notes during guided reading groups. The forms I have are suited for
first grade. It was designed so that I can check off observable behaviors
at different text levels along with space for anecdotal
