We use Making Meaning at grades K-5. It is really teacher friendly and if anyone has used Debbie Miller before it is very similar to her workshop method. it also has all the books for read alouds included and suggestions on how to teach the book using the specific strategy during your min-lesson. we found it really helpful as we were using Debbie Miller but having to find our own books to match each reading strategy. After three years of a workshop method, by second and third grade my students are adept at reading independently, keeping track of their thinking, and recording their thinking, as well as responding in a variety of ways to books they are reading at their own level. I think the workshop method is the best way to teach and differentiate at any grade level!
