Maggie,
If you are looking for a way to organize all you do, I would suggest looking
at the Four Blocks Framework.
You divide your literacy time into four sections that you teach everyday:
Guided Reading
Working with Words
Self-Selected Reading
Writing Workshop
Here are 2 websites that will give you information on how to tie it together:

Also, you might consider doing literacy workstations. We are currently
discussing Practice with Purpose by Debbie Diller here: Click to join
PracticeWithPurpose-BookTalk
If you want more info on Four Blocks, email me off list and I'll try to
answer your questions.
