[quote=Anonymous]I'm a librarian and I always insist on kids picking one "just right book" that is on their reading level, especially if a kid is also checking out something that seems too easy or too hard. But to be fair, I don't know every child's reading level. When I was trained in guided reading ( a waste of time since it's not germane to the library curriculum) I was told that students should read silently. The teacher circulates and has the kid read to him/her in a low voice so they can observe phonetic/decoding issues and help kids individually. In my opinion, ability grouping within a classroom makes more sense because the groups are fluid as ability levels change. If you have a class of kids who are all at the same level then it's harder to move kids to different classrooms as their abilities grow. Or you might end up with one class of 5 kids and annother with 30.[/quote]
