September 2010
I keep going back and forth about my professional goal. I really want to work on both the reader's and writer's workshop. I feel like I have the Reader's Workshop figured out and implemented in my classroom. It is running smoothly and the kids are responding well to it. I do a 15 min mini lesson, followed by 45 minutes of small group instruction, and 5 minutes of sharing at the end that foccuses on the skill taught during my mini lesson.
One thing that I would really like to do this year is implement Literature Circles into my Reader's Workshop. I have done Literature Cirlces in the past but have made them more a guided reading groups. I would like them to be in addition to their guided reading group. I would like for the students to run their own literature circle with minimal teacher interaction. Any ideas??
