But as the complexity of the text increases, I move over to this form. I am not sure where I got the original for this format, but if you know, please share it with me! I have had it for about 12 years I think. I retyped it because it had gotten so messy.

Then it is time for word work! You can honestly take a station activity to use as your word work, but I have also created some activities that are specifically designed for your small group table.
The spinner can be found HERE.
AND for your students who are working on stretching out longer words, we use the same cards.

I love reading about your small groups and centers. Thanks for the running record sheet. When I clicked on the bookmark picture, though, it took me to the running record sheet again. Thanks for sharing your great resources!
AHH!!! So sorry! I just fixed the link 🙂
Awesome! I love the bookmark. Thanks again for sharing!
Thanks for all you share! I'm looking forward to learning more from you in Seattle!
I am trying to organize my monthly storage boxes and just came across this picture. I was wondering how the storage boxes/seating have held up? How long have they lasted?
Thank you!

Oh my goodness! Beautifully! I would have team meeting around my small group table during our plan time and we would sit on them. I sat on them all the time and I am not a delicate flower 😉
Thank you! I think I will do this! I appreciate all the ideas that you share!
Do you take a running record for each student each time you do your small group Guided Reading? I am new to Guided Reading and trying to organize and plan the routine for my small groups. I have 4-5 students in each group, so I’m trying to decide if I should do a running record with every student with each new book/passage? Any advice would be great. Thank you. 🙂
Hi Tina!
I do one running record on a familiar read at the beginning of the session… then one on a cold read with the new book. I don’t do the same student on the same day, but I suppose you could. I would not try to do more than that. In this way, you will have a running record on every student each week. I think that is sufficient.
Thank you. That is very helpful! 🙂
Crazy question…..What size baking sheet do you use to organize your magnetic letters for small group? A picture would be great 🙂 Thanks so much!!!
Hi there! They are a standard size… I think around 12′ x 18″.
I love your ideas and the running record is very helpful, but the bookmark link shows an error.
