Book Reviews of Guided Reading: Good First Teaching for All Children

Book Review: Very helpful
Summary: 5 Stars

I bought this book to refresh my knowledge of guided reading. I attended college in the late 90s/ early 00s, when guided reading was all the rage. Guided reading was used in the school system where I taught third grade for two years. Now, I work in a high school and don't use guided reading. I remember hearing so much about Fountas & Pinnell's book that I purchased it.

The book is so helpful for primary reading teachers. It has no gimmicks! Just the facts- why guided reading, when guided reading, how guided reading. With an appendix of resources, Guided Reading: Good First Teaching for All Children can help any primary teacher "get through" the first year of teaching reading. Veteran teachers can keep this on their shelf for easy reference.

Just remember, not every classroom is heavenly. Not every child comes to school ready and willing to learn to read. Nor does every child understand the value of literacy. It can be an uphill battle to get your students to cooperate in a guided reading classroom. Don't blame guided reading for behavior issues!!! Instead, modify the guided reading classroom so students can slowly learn how to behave during guided reading.
