hi. I am considering getting your Rockin Reading Workshop for my 3rd grade class. I saw that someone asked you if the lessons were Common Core aligned. You were going to try to align it at Christmas. I was wondering if that was something that you were able to do yet. Thanks! I love your products.

Hello Jamie,
Thank you for your message- and for your kind words! I had to wait to the summer to tackle that project. It is going to be more in depth than I previously thought. :) So, to answer your question...I have not gotten around to it yet. So sorry about that!!! Our most recent common core reading file is with Camilla Cream- using anchor charts. Maybe that can get you started? Keep checking our blog over the summer! I can't promise a date it will be complete- but I am hoping soon!!!
I hope you have a great night! Melissa :)

Hello, I was thinking about buying your resource, but I guess I was just wondering a little bit about your mini-lessons. About how many would you say there are? I have donereader's workshop, but wnat a more organized resource to help my third graders with common core. Would you say this resource is best for me? Thanks so much for your help.

Hello,
Thanks so much for your question. If you are looking for a file correlated to common core...this will not be the best file for you. We have to tackle the alignment to common core and reading workshop this summer. This gives more information for the teacher about the structure, routine, and format to reading workshop. There are not a lot of in depth reading mini-lessons, we just list a lot of ideas for how to get RW up and running in your classroom. (E.G. Choosing a just right reading spot, recording your books read in a log.)
I hope that helps!
Melissa :)

I am going to be teaching 4th grade (my first class) and am wondering if this would be appropriate for 4th graders. I love all the positive comments you have received.
About how many pages are there to download?
Thanks

Hi-
Congrats on your new position! Yes, this would be appropriate for 4th graders. It includes 122 pages of mini-lessons to teach to your students. We also have an Ultimate Writing Resource that goes much more into the 6 Traits of Writing if your school district uses that model. Best of luck to you, Nicole :)

Hello! Can you tell me a bit more about the mini-lessons. About how many reading strategy lessons are in this pack? Do they include graphic organizers or prompts for the children? I love the idea of RW, but am very curious about how you help kids WRITE about their reading.

Hi Chrissy,
Thank you for your interest in our TPT store!
You know, after reflecting upon your question, I believe that Rockin' Reading Workshop: Gingerbread Style might actually best fit your needs. Although Rockin' Reading Workshop has a long list of mini-lessons and discusses in depth the process of reading workshop, the Rockin' Reading workshop: GingerBread style goes MUCH more in depth about mini-lessons and really breaks down teacher/student responsibility for each mini-lesson.
Here is our blog post:
http://lessonplansos.blogspot.com/2013/01/rockin-reading-workshop-gingerbread.html

Here is the link for the product at our tpt store:
http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Rockin-Reading-Workshop-Gingerbread-Style

Make sure you read the customer reviews- they may help you decide if this is right for you!

Thanks, Chrissy!

Hi there! I am very excited about the Rockin Reading Workshop, however, I can't print it out. The other items I have purchased from you, printed out easily. We are a Mac school, and I am not sure if that has anything to do with it.
Thanks so much! Katie

Hi Katie,
Thanks so much for purchasing our Reading Workshop file. YES!! The reason why you are having that problem is because of the Mac. Here is what you can do:

This is the message we give to our customers who are having trouble, can you see if it helps in any way?
Newer PDFs can't be seen properly with Preview. To fix this, you need to download the latest version of Adobe Reader (Adobe Reader X) and use that to open it (a Mac will automatically open it with Preview if you don't say otherwise). So, in your Finder Window, highlight the file and then click on the tool in the top of the Finder Window that looks like a sprocket then choose Open With and then Other and then select Adobe Reader.

Let us know if you have any more questions. Have great night, Katie!

Hello!
No, the common core standards are not currently listed in this resource! That is a great suggestion, though, and I will hopefully have the chance to add them to the file over Christmas vacation!
Thanks so much!

I was reading about your reading workshop on your website and came across this. Does this contain the fiction contract that you show on your website? and is there a contract for nonfiction?
October 10, 2012 Report inappropriate comment
Lesson Plan SOS Teachers
Lesson Plan SOS Teachers  (TpT Seller)
Hello!
Yes, it does! The contract is a variety of different graphic organizers for fiction and nonfiction books. I introduce each of the graphic organizers during our mini lesson instruction. Then, after all of the graphic organizers are taught and reviewed, the students complete them during their independent reading time. I found that teach each graphic organizer really helps the students understand the expectation for the quality that I expect.
I hope this helps!

Hello! This is my first year to teach reading. I have purchased the Teacher Reading Binder. I am teaching fifth grade, does the Rockin' Reading Workshop work for that grade level?
August 15, 2012 Report inappropriate comment
Lesson Plan SOS Teachers
Lesson Plan SOS Teachers  (TpT Seller)
Hello!
Thank you for checking out our TpT Store!
Yes, I do believe that you will find the Rockin' Reading Workshop a good fit for fifth grade, because the students are taught to independently read just right books when the teacher is teaching guided reading groups/conferencing. You might also be interested in our Reader's Notebook: For the Students! file as well.
I hope that helps answer your questions!!!

Hello Meredith,
Thank you for your message! Yes, the Rockin' Reading Workshop is different than the Teacher Reading Binder. No, you do not need these to supplement what you already bought. The reading workshop is geared towards teachers who want to use independent reading and minilessons as the main focus to their reading instruction. (instead of literacy stations/centers.)
I hope that helps!
Thanks, Meredith!

Thank you for visiting our TpT store! No, I do not think that the binder is too young for your kiddos- especially if you teach literature groups. Just as an FYI, we are updating our reading binder (again!!) and will have new activities included in that file. We hope to have the new activities ready by this weekend. If you do decide to purchase the binder, please come back to redownload the file this weekend!

Hello! Thanks so much for your message and for visiting our TpT store. I apologize, but I would not recommend our files for kindergarten. (Especially not the Rockin' Reading Workshop file.) There are a LOT of resource pages for any grade level teacher included, but there are also some parts of the file to use with students. I am not sure that I would recommend those activities for kinders. If you are intersted in just the binder cover pages (for the Teacher Reading Binder), email us! We can just sell you those ($4.00) and send you an invoice for the cover pages.
I hope that helps! Please let us know if you have any other questions!
Have a great day,

Hi Ladies!

I'm hoping you can help me! I am really looking for mini lessons to use with my first graders. I want to focus on Visualizing, Schema, Main Idea, Inferring, Sequencing and others along those lines. I see that your unit has mini lessons and I was wondering if you could just give me more info about them.

Would I be better to purchase your Reading File Binder? I'm really looking for enough mini lessons to get me through the year. This is only my second year in first and I did not like just using the basil last year.

Thanks for any help!

Hi-
If you want to see some of our lesson ideas, we have lots of pictures on our blog www.lessonplansos.blogspot.com - just look under the links for guided reading. The reading binder is more for the teacher to organize and run their groups effectively. I teach 2nd grade and use the rockin reading workshop file for all of my mini lessons. We also have a file called Guided Reading with Pizzazz which is geared more towards younger students. I think looking at the pictures and descriptions on our blog will give you a better idea of the different items we have. If you have further questions, please feel free to email us at teachers@lessonplansos.com!

Hi Alyssa- Thanks for your message and for your purchase!
Are you using a Mac by chance? Many Mac are not able to view the newer pdf's. The lines won't be there when you print it out. You can download the latest version of Adobe Reader and it will fix any problems you have when viewing pdf's. There is also a TpT message that addresses your question on the page where you download your purchases. If you still have any trouble, send us an email at teachers@lessonplansos.com for further help. We can always email you the file. Thanks for visiting our TpT store! :)

I just bought your Rockin' Reading Workshop packet. I just glanced through it quickly and loved so many things! However, I noticed that parts of pages 68, 82, 90-94, and 96 are blacked out. It looks like it did not download correctly or there is clipart/font that didn't work right. Is it just me? Is there any way we could fix it because I'd love to use the templates for my students?
