In every minute of every day, teachers make countless decisions—both planned and in the moment. And in few settings is this more evident than during guided reading instruction.

Drawing on years of research and countless interactions with students and teachers, this thoughtful book presents a framework of instructional decision making centered on the readers we work with, the books we share with them, and the instructional objectives we guide them toward. In this fresh look at the instructional choices we make, Robin Griffith offers an in-depth guide in which you’ll discover how to make effective, student-driven decisions, both while planning for and in the moments of teaching at the guided reading table.
