THE FOUR BLOCKS WAY: GUIDED READING AND MORE
Pam Esselman, West Bend
pesselman@west-bend.k12.wi.us 
  

This course will offer the basics of the Four Blocks Literacy Model and much more.  It is designed both for teachers new to the Four Blocks Literacy Model and for the experienced teacher interested in enhancing the guided reading block.  Class participants will learn each of the four blocks and explore ideas for connecting the blocks and using the Four Blocks Model with their current curriculum.  Share strategies for designing a Four Blocks schedule that works best for you.  Often the guided reading block is the most challenging component to implement effectively.  This course will place a special emphasis on activating the guided reading block.  New reading activities, comprehension strategies, and a materials review will be provided.

Past participants agree: "Pam does an excellent job blending research/theory with practical strategies for the classroom." and "This is the best class I ever attended.  I would recommend it to all primary teachers.  Pam went above and beyond my expectation."

Overall workshop rating at Sally Ride Academy 2007 - 3.92 (4 point scale).
