Synopsis

With over 50 years of collective reading experience, authors Jan Burkins and Melody Croft bring their expertise to Preventing Misguided Reading: Next Generation Guided Reading Strategies. The authors present personal clarifications, adaptations, and supports that have helped them work through the tricky parts as they guide readers in the classroom. Inside, each of the six chapters clarifies a misunderstanding about guided reading instruction in the following areas:

• Teacher's Role and Gradual Release of Responsibility
• Instructional Reading Level
• Text Gradients
• Balanced Instruction
• Integrated Processing Assessment

With 27 strategies, Burkins and Croft will help you reframe your way of thinking about teaching reading and act on "revisioning" strategically.
