STRATEGY STRATEGY INSTRUCTION INSTRUCTION DURING DURING CONFERENCESCONFERENCES
Let’s watch a few teachers instruct during conferences.
1.Goal Setting Conference
2.Keep Track Conferences
Check to see if the teacher is explicit. Does the student know HOW, WHEN, and WHY to use the strategy?

Small Group InstructionWith your group, discuss the ideas shared in these readings. Add your thoughts to the chart provided.
We’ll share out as a group in about 15 minutes.
We like this idea and plan
to try it!
We like this idea, but it needs to be
tweaked. (Indicate how you

Guided ReadingGuided ReadingInstructional approach in which small
groups of students come together
Students are similar in reading development, so they can be taught together for a period of time.
Students read the same text, selected by the teacher, and receive explicit instruction to expand reading processing systems.

Strategy GroupsStrategy GroupsInstructional approach in which small groups
of students come together
Students have similar needs and receive explicit instruction to improve reading strategies.
Students may read at different levels and bring self selected text to work with during small group.
Groups are flexible

Determining Groups for Determining Groups for InstructionInstruction
With your group, look at the class list provided. Think about how you might group these students.
Who would be in a group together? Why?Would you use guided reading or strategy groups? Why?Who would benefit from conferences? Why?

Discussion of ReadingDiscussion of ReadingGetting Started with Book Clubs
We’ll separate into groups of three. You’ll pick the topic you want to review:
◦ Book Selection/Forming Groups/Scheduling Groups
◦ The Structure of Book Club◦ The Teacher’s role/Assessment
Take a minute to review that section.
Share out your thoughts with the other two group members.
![Page 17: Methods and Materials in Reading/Lit Week 9 Betsy Brown SUNY Geneseo](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062523/5a4d1ae17f8b9ab0599773b7/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Book Clubs/Literature Book Clubs/Literature CirclesCircles
Literature circles are small, peer-led discussion groups who have chosen to read the same story, poem, article, or book.
While reading each group-assigned portion of the text
(either in or outside of class), each member makes notes to help them take contribute to the upcoming discussion, and everyone comes to the group with ideas to share.
Each group follows a reading and meeting schedule, holding periodic discussions on the way through the book.
When they finish a book, the circle members may share highlights of their reading with the wider community; then they trade members with other finishing groups, select more reading, and move into a new cycle.
![Page 18: Methods and Materials in Reading/Lit Week 9 Betsy Brown SUNY Geneseo](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062523/5a4d1ae17f8b9ab0599773b7/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Books clubs work best when students are comfortable discussing books in small groups.
Have other teachers, parents, adults come in to share about their own book clubs. Develop a list of what the class learned about book clubs.
Use minilessons from (F&P) to help students prepare for book clubs.

Writing Conferences and Small Writing Conferences and Small GroupsGroups
My writing conferences and small groups are different from reading!
Structure of Writing Workshop
MINILESSON (10 – 15 minutes)Students learn about structure, genre, or
strategy that will help improve writing.WRITING (15 – 20 minutes)
Students are independently writing. May be meeting with writing partner to
revise/edit writing.SHARE (5 minutes)
Students share work done during writing
![Page 22: Methods and Materials in Reading/Lit Week 9 Betsy Brown SUNY Geneseo](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062523/5a4d1ae17f8b9ab0599773b7/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Writing ConferencesWriting Conferences1. Initiate conference by asking, “How’s it
going?” or ask student to read a section of their writing.
2. Determine strategy that is most helpful to student at that time. Try to address ONE issue at a time!
3. Teach/Model strategy.
4. Allow time for guided practice. Make note of conference and strategy taught.
5. Monitor progress in future writing pieces.
