Hopefully this helps

I currently have a student-teacher and I've been in this field for approx.15yrs. This is how I address G.Reading. I begin by giving each student a tablet. The first couple of pages are designated for assignments. We then
tab the following sections: Vocabulary-this is for words they don't know, they must write the page and then look up the definition. Wonder section: Reserved for their questions and discussed on the day we meet Work Completed Section: Obvious to complete the assignments and just recently we came up with a section for Writing --this section is for words or phrases they like and might
use during their writing time. It somewhat helps when students have to incorporate voice in their writing. I have 5groups therefore I meet with each group once a week. Each group has a particular day to meet. When we do meet I assign work that will keep them busy until the next time we meet which means they have one week to complete the reading and the assignments. In the groups we discuss such things as the characters, problems, solutions, text to text, to self and to the world. Anyway I hope this gives you some idea of where to begin. Everyone seems to have a different style of accomplishing the Guided reading topic. I also hope you know that Guided Reading is also a leveled reading which allows students to read at their own ability.It is to help with fluency and comprehension.
