Guided Reading Venn Diagram

Melissa Kozerski — Wed, 29 Jul 2015 02:40:15 +0000

This is a great lesson to teach when you are implementing guided reading groups at the beginning of a new school year. This interactive lesson gives the opportunity to teach the expectations of the teacher and the students in a guided reading group. I like to use two hoola hoops to create our Venn diagram, just like shown in the picture.

When the Venn diagram is complete, I like to take a picture of it. I photocopy the picture and have my students glue it in their reader’s notebook. I also place the picture on an anchor chart next to my guided reading bulletin board. Whenever a student needs a reminder about one of the expectations, I just refer to the anchor chart as a friendly reminder of our lesson.

***This file is included in my Teacher Reading Binder resource as well. Per customer request, I am also selling this lesson separately!!***

Classroom Expectations and Classroom Rules- Are you ready to teach the classroom expectations to a brand new batch of smart little cookies?

If so..I “Mustache” You a Question…Do you need some inspiration to turn your boring and redundant classroom expectation lessons into a more engaging activity?

Jazz it up by using an interactive mustache theme!! Students use mustaches as props to ask questions about the expectations in the classroom and create an Venn diagram, which can be used as an adorable back to school bulletin board!! File includes questions, flip book, colorful posters, and pictures of the mustache props.Students might enjoy this so much that they just might ask you to review the expectations again and again! :)

If you have any questions, please email me!

Thank you!!!
