Thanks Karen Atkins for sharing this site on Yammer.
Comprehension
Clemson University Reading Recovery and Early Literacy Training Center - Another site to check out has great resources for teaching guided reading but I particularly like the comprehension strategy section. It has detailed sample lessons for each of the comprehension strategies, along with sample videos, student work samples and links to further reading. Thanks Shellie Tancred for finding this treasure trove!
Most NSW Primary teachers are familiar with the Teaching Comprehension Strategies handbook but have you seen the very detailed Comprehension Handbook published by the NSW Centre for Effective Reading? Love the explicit and specific seuqnece of skills charts!
