Charlotte's Web: Guided Reading

Hello fellow educator!

I am sharing this guided reading/comprehension resource with you in the hopes that it will save you some bit of time and enhance your lessons. I know I lose countless hours looking up resources, creating resources and copying resources myself, so if this helps you in any way, then I count that as a small victory for our educating community.

Please note that I left this resource in Word so that you can edit it for your needs. There are also PDFs. Please note that there are questions for every chapter and writing prompts for every other chapter. It’s there for you to pick and choose.

A little about me and this resource: I was the English Coordinator at a UK school and I took on the task one year of developing a guided reading programme for KS2 (ages 7-11) as I noticed this was missing from the school. I have included individual pupil questions and/or writing prompts that students glue into their Reading Response journals after reading a chapter with the teacher/independently.

About this resource:

I created this for a high ability guided reading group for UK Year 3 (US 2nd/3rd grade). I have also used these questions with reluctant readers and students I have tutored. Kids love Charlotte’s Web!
