Jane Farrall has a clear, simple and succinct slideshow on guided reading (LINK HERE) up on Slideshare. I recommend teachers, parents, and speech therapists of learners who speak as well as learners that cannot take a look at these practical suggestions for sharing books.
- Starting with purposes for reading, "Read so that you can..."
- Types of guided reading
- Reading follow-ups
- And 5 parts of guided reading.
She makes a very clear case for providing aided language displays to talk to and with learners, in general as well as in book reading.

For all of you SymbolStix users out there, here is the same board created in TouchChat.
