Amy- I understand you frustration and excitement for Reader's Workshop. I am not familiar with the reading program that you speak of, but my suggestion would be to use your reading program with in the RW model. There is a great book out there called, The reading workshop revisited. It is a great book telling in short how to get things set up. Our district is in the middle of a new reading adoption, I would hate from them to mandate me to use it 100% of the time. I enjoy RW and teaching the LOVE of reading. Personally I find that the more kids read, the better they get, and the the better they do on TESTS. I think the administration overlooks this when they choose reading programs.
Good Luck!
