For the intermediate teachers I would recommend the "sisters" Café and literature circles. Try the book Mini-Lessons for Literature Circles by Harvey Danieles and Steineke.

I'm leading my school's language arts committee and we are making big shifts in reading. Most likely we will move to Daily 5/CAFE in k-2 and then Reading Workshop 3-6. Reading strategies will be taught throughout, beginning in 1st grade. What do you guys suggest in terms of professional development? We have some faculty members who have attended D5/CAFE workshops, some who have attended Teachers College RWP, and some who have little or no knowledge of either. Regardless, we need something systematic, that will get us all on the same page, in both philosophy and practice. Suggestions?
