Students are able to apply knowledge with some teacher support when needed
Teacher must ensure flexibility when determining groupings- they will change throughout the year based on student abilities
Guided reading allows teachers to gain assessment on how students are able to apply skills and concepts taught in whole group settings.
Guided reading is conducted in small group settings rather than whole group.

Shared Reading 15-20 mins

Use of big books is best for a shared reading to ensure that all students can see and participate
Teacher will use one text piece to focus on for multiple days in order to explicitly teach a particular skill or topic. As students re-read the same text piece the gradual release of responsibility becomes less
Both teacher and students participate

Independent Reading 20 mins + talk time

Ensure accountability systems to make sure students are using independent reading time appropriately. ie. reading logs, book talks etc.
Last stage in gradual release of responsibility. Students have been taught the skills to successfully read on their own or with a partner
