FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Why are these decodable readers kindergarten small group units called “guided reading?” These science of reading aligned units are meant to help you rethink and redefine what guided reading looks like in your classroom! Instead of using leveled readers and teaching guessing strategies, you will teach reading in a systematic way using decodable readers that build as students learn new phonics skills.
This is NOT traditional guided reading, which we know is not best practice. Rather, it takes the guided reading format you are used to and aligns it with the science of reading!
