I am a reading specialist & I love doing book clubs. I am running
some this summer with students in grades 2-5. I have been using Harvey
Daniels book Literature circles as a resource and Aimee Buckner's
readers notebook. Plus guided. Reading 3-6 by fountas & Pinnell I
usuallly enlist classroom teachers help. We have mixed ability groups
because it's based on interest, therefore text selection is critical.
They are really great for all involved kids are more motivated
teachers can learn new strategies to use w direct application without
it being too ovewhelming & with your support

I would like to get some suggestions from you guys on ideas for
starting some sort of book club, writing club, poetry club, etc. to
do with students either during lunch, before or after school. What
things have you done? This is my third year as a reading specialist
at a K-5 school.I don't know if I want to target remedial readers or
high readers. My principal is all for doing things above and beyond
and I would like to bring something fresh to the table this year. I
appreciate any suggestions you may have.

Subject: [MOSAIC] reading response journals
I've been a member of the group for awhile and so appreciate the
great ideas
I receive from this talented group of professionals.
I'll be returning to the classroom (second grade) after a year's
leave and
want to utilize reading response journals. I'd love to hear ideas
on how
these are done in your classrooms, especially primary classes. I
can't find
much specific info in the professional reading I've been doing.
Journals are
mentioned, but the details are lacking.
In the past I've had students use prompts (always modeled, of
course), with
mixed results. Any help you can give would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Lisa
