Introduction : let's start here
You can have it both ways : reading literature deeply and fostering joyful, independent reading
Start with the students : identify the skills your students need
Look beyond the usual suspects : choose the book your students need
Map out the unit : plan the timing and the strategies you'll teach
Delight in the details : plan your daily instruction : read-alouds and mini-lessons
Reach everyone : differentiate with small groups and conferences
Keep students engaged : address the challenges of teaching a whole-class text
Track growth : assessing along the way : writing about reading
Launch readers : honoring choice to develop stronger, independent students
Celebrate achievements : assessing, writing, and making as an end to the unit.
