Reader's Workshop provides students with a supportive environment that involves them in authentic reading experiences that focus on the strengths and needs of each individual student.
Reader's Workshop helps kids develop strong reading skills through the use of a mini-lesson, shared reading, read aloud, conferencing, independent reading, paired reading, literature response, and Reader's Chair.
The basic philosophy behind the Reading Workshop is to allow students to spend an extended amount of time reading authentic texts that interest them on a daily basis and to provide opportunities to talk about literature. The ultimate goal of a Reading Workshop is always to develop life-long passionate readers.

I have been reading through all the stories parents are sharing in the comments and I am honestly overwhelmed by how much this program means to our children. Your personal notes are the real fuel behind this effort and they show exactly why our school community values these reading habits so much.

It would be a great shame to see this program go away. As a mother with a set of twins in the second grade in two different classes one that uses the program and one that opted to go back to the old way. I can Say beyond a shadow of a doubt this program has helped beyond words.The child who has the program everyday wants to read and when we go to a store He is the one who wants to look at books instead of toys how amazing is this that a 7 year old boy actually wants to read. However his sister lacks the same reading interests please do not do away with this program.
This program helped our daughter so much! She is enjoying to read more!
hi
Has been very good for Zach and Maci
That's a great question. Does anyone have any ideas?
Keeping Reader's Workshop is vital! What can we do to organize more support?

My daughter is finally reading at grade level and I believe it's partly due to a better reading program!!!!
