Guided Reading Plus Module

According to Dorn & Soffos (2012), the GRP intervention is designed for students who are emergent , early , or transitional readers struggling with grade level text. The goal is to teach students to acquire flexible strategies for solving problems in reading and writing, while maintaining focus on comprehension. This Module is intended to assist you in developing the skills you need to plan, implement, assess, reflect, and collaborate with others on using GRP as a tier 1 intervention in classrooms or tier 2 intervention groups. Most of the materials to get started are on this site. However, I encourage you to purchase __Shaping Literate Minds__ and __Interventions That Work__ by Linda Dorn & Carla Soffos. These two texts are very important in shaping the understanding of literacy processing, scaffolding, and transfer as it relates to this intervention.

To get started, it is best to work in groups. Choose a lead teacher or literacy coach to assist in facilitating the meetings around the study using the facilitator's guide in the module, make copies of the handouts, and prepare for the meetings.
