"Struggling readers, especially those in grades 4-8, need to feel success with reading; they often develop negative mindsets and tune out and away from reading at this age. Currently, there is a large market for "low-level, high-interest" trade books to reach middle-school students who are reading far below grade level. The problem with such books, however, is that kids feel embarrassed to be seen reading them...furthering the negative mindset. And, of course, simply sticking a low-level reader with a book and asking him or her to read independently is problematic because these kids likely still need some shared and guided reading support in order to master the skills they're lacking. Yet many middle-grade teachers don't have experience teaching guided reading, so they, too, need support. This book by Laura Robb and David Harrison solves these problems by offering both original poems and short texts for students as well as lesson ideas for teachers. The poems and short texts are written specifically for students in grades 4 to 8 reading two or more years below grade level; they're written at a second and third grade instructional level, but the ideas will be complex. Plus, the poems and short texts used for shared reading will be written at a higher level because the teacher reads the text first and then students choral read it together. The book's ultimate goal is this: As students gain self-confidence by reading and discussing poetry, short texts, and books during independent reading, their successes will develop the mindset needed to continue to read independently to improve their reading skill and stamina"--

Guided Practice for Reading Growth provides all you need to support middle grade students reading two or more years below grade level. Twenty-four powerful reading lessons feature original poems and short texts that interest students and encourage them to think deeply.

This unique book shows you how to:

·         Build students’ background knowledge by watching and discussing videos.

·         Use poems to improve reading and fluency through practice and performance.

·         Invite students to write about their reading and increase comprehension and recall.

·         Encourage meaningful talk to enlarge students’ analytical thinking and understanding.

"With special consideration on our students who are developing as proficient readers, this book unpacks an essential step in skilled teaching the guided practice component. So often, we leapfrog from modeling to independent practice; Robb and Harrisons thoughtful inquiry into guided practice helps us understand the power and promise of guided practice, the essential components of guided practice, and model lessons to enact guided practice." -- Molly Ness, Ph.D, "The power of intriguing texts, purposeful reading, and development of independence in reading are the keystones of this book. Teachers will find guidance on how to snag the interest of middle school students with content texts especially written by David L. Harrison and woven into compelling lessons by Laura Robb. The authors provide teachers with a powerhouse of lessons that nudge students along in becoming independent readers who can infer, summarize, discern cause and effect, and much more. Not only will students gain skill in reading, but they will also have multiple opportunities to write, discuss, and broaden their vocabulary. An outstanding resource!" -- Mary Jo Fresch, Ph.D., "This book shows teachers how to apprentice developing readers into knowing and doing the secret things that expert readers know and do.  Laura Robb and her co-author have nailed the very core of the kind of cognitive apprenticeship that transforms student engagement and capacity: provide guided practice into the use of new stances and strategies (in ways tailored to meet the needs of the whole class, small groups and individuals), and then move to deliberate independent practice that consolidates, extends and explores these moves of expert readers. " -- Jeffrey Wilhelm "Laura Robb and David L. Harrisons new book is a great practical guide to help teachers provide more effective reading instruction!"   -- Larry Ferlazzo "Laura Robb is a legend in the field of literacy and the years she has dedicated to serving and educating shine through in this gem! Robbs optimistic tone and steadfast belief in learners permeate each page of this practical professional resource. The included lessons are a tribute to student-centered, scaffolded learning. These thoughtfully-spiraled lessons build confidence in problem-solving and spotlight the importance of literary conversation. I greatly appreciate the focus on using real, relevant, and accessible texts to drive classroom learning. As such, Harrisons writing amplifies the "engagement factor" of each lesson I imagine classroom readers will get lost in the rhythm and melody of his words. Thank you, Laura and David, for sharing your knowledge, wisdom, and expertise with us all." -- Pamela Koutrakos "What is essential for reading growth?  David Harrison and Laura Robb provide guidelines and tips for schedules, routines, instructional practices and lessons that increase students reading skill and self-confidence with proven sustained growth by real students in real classrooms. The authors use the research and their classroom work to provide evidence that students working below their grade level do not need pre-made programs or one-size basals but do need knowledgeable teachers who know their students and align and craft guided practice that encourages students to work hard to meet their goals. This book details how guided practice reinforces and enhances independent reading, interactive read-alouds, vocabulary building and writing about texts in a readers notebook in manageable instructional practices.The implementation of the ideas in this book will help EVERY teacher develop effective and efficient targeted instruction that capitalizes on their knowledge and relationships with the students in their own classrooms." -- Fran McVeigh "One of the hardest parts of helping developing readers can be finding texts that support them.  In this compendium of intermediate and middle grade reading lessons, Laura and David suggest one great text after another, making offering readers the practice they need to become stronger, more proficient readers even easier!" -- Kim Yaris
