This document appears to be a series of slides from a presentation on guided reading. It discusses best practices for guided reading including having small groups of students at a table with the teacher, keeping the guided reading area clear, and actually teaching reading strategies rather than just having students complete worksheets. It also provides examples of activities that can be done with other students independently like developing problem-solving skills, close reading techniques, and student choice and projects. The presentation encourages teachers to plan guided reading groups aligned to whole group lessons and questions to ask during reading groups. It suggests anchoring strategies for discussions after reading. Overall, the document shares guidance and ideas for effectively implementing guided reading in the classroom.

29. “Guided Reading is not coming to the guided reading table and completing worksheets
with or without the teacher, it is not doing projects, it is not discussing and talking about
their independent reading books, it is not assessing one student while the rest read
silently, it is not having students read and retell to each other while you write a parent
email or shop online, it is not book clubs or literature circles without the teacher, it is
not reading to them, for them or with them, it is not writing Guided Reading in your
lesson plan book and not actually teaching guided reading, and it is not playing games
and coloring sheets with or without the teacher. Guided reading is not guided reading
if only 1 or 2 students are sitting at the table and guided reading is done best at a
horseshoe shaped table with the teacher on one side and six students pulled up to the
other side of the table. Guided reading is also done best when the guided reading table
is clean and clear of clutter. This paragraph probably doesn't apply to you, but I just
had to put it out there.”
