Reading Workshop!

[[image:dj_b2school_bookstack_c.jpg width="165" height="116"]]
Reading workshop is a reading structure that allows students to explore books and reading based on their own interests and needs. During reading workshop, we begin with a mini-lesson, followed by independent reading time to practice the new skill learned. During independent reading time, I confer with individual readers and re-teach lessons as needed or just check on their overall progress. At the end of workshop time, students share about the books they are reading or how they used the strategy or skill we learned that day.
