Guided reading
Guided reading is the practice of teaching pupils reading and comprehension skills, and usually involves an adult working with small groups differentiated by reading ability. This allows the teacher to discuss texts in depth at a level which is suitable and appropriate to the pupils, and to support them with encountering and understanding new vocabulary.
Guided reading books should offer challenge, but also be pitched at a level which enables the child to work independently with the text when not in a focus group. They also need to be engaging and a length that can be completed within a reasonably short period of time – perhaps one half term.
