Preventing Misguided Reading cover

With over 50 years of collective reading experience, authors Jan Burkins and Melody Croft bring their expertise to Preventing Misguided Reading: Next Generation Guided Reading Strategies. The authors present personal clarifications, adaptations, and supports that have helped them work through the tricky parts as they guide readers in the classroom. Inside, each of the six chapters clarifies a misunderstanding about guided reading instruction in the following areas:

  • Teacher's Role and Gradual Release of Responsibility
  • Instructional Reading Level
  • Text Gradients
  • Balanced Instruction
  • Integrated Processing Assessment

With 27 strategies, Burkins and Croft will help you reframe your way of thinking about teaching reading and act on "revisioning" strategically.

“Guided reading is not really about levels, benchmark texts, or offering the right prompts to students when they struggle with words. Rather, guided reading is, for us, about supporting children as they develop strategic approaches to meaning making.”

  • Jan Miller Burkins and Melody M. Croft

“Going back to reread sections of a book to deepen one’s understanding is a hallmark of a great professional read. Other hallmarks include things like questioning and reflecting and responding to the words written on the page like you’re having an engaging conversation with the authors. As you read this book, you will find yourself doing all these things.”

  • Kim Yaris, coauthor of Who’s Doing the Work
