  • Guided Reading Weekly Planning Template (over 4 days).
  • Younger students (YR 1 - YR 3): 8 sets of guided reading books are required (2 sets of books per group).
  • Older students (YR 4 - YR 6): 4 sets of guided reading books are required (1 set of books per group).
  • Please note: Allow for 4 timetabled guided reading sessions each week.
  • 2 adults are needed to complete each guided reading session - normally the class teacher and TLA (Teaching and Learning Assistant) - but you just need 2 responsible adults.
  • Each guided reading session lasts approximately 50 minutes and each group of children should be listened to for 20 minutes (2 groups at a time).
  • 10 minutes (per session) is allocated to changing groups and to explain independent activities - at the beginning and halfway through the session.
  • 1 day per week (normally Friday), the guided reading session WILL NOT take place. You can choose the day!
  • Groups and Independent Activities: Divide your class into 4 groups (these can be colour groups, different animals, shapes - whatever you decide).
  • When a group is NOT being listened to, they will complete an independent activity set by you - it can link to the book they are reading or completely unrelated (e.g. a handwriting, spelling or times tables task). These are called pre-reading activities (an activity to complete BEFORE they read with an adult) or post-reading activity (an activity to complete AFTER they read with an adult).
  • Learning outcomes: Choose books from the same genre - fiction, non-fiction or poetry. A maximum of 3 learning outcomes should be focused on each week.
  • Monday’s timetable: FIRST, the TLA will listen to the red group WHILST the teacher listens to the orange group.
  • AFTER reading to the adult, the red and orange group will complete their independent activity (set by you).
  • NEXT, the TLA will listen to the green group WHILST the teacher listens to the black group.
  • BEFORE reading to an adult, the green and black group will have completed an independent activity (set by you).
  • The 5th day: On this day, you DO NOT do guided reading.
  • Instead, you could ask your student’s to read independently (or with a partner).
  • Alternatively, you could visit the library, read a book to your class OR read a ‘shared’ class text.
