Donald Graves Reading

shared by Kim Yaris on 02 Oct 10 - No Cached

Kim Yaris on 02 Oct 10

A moving tribute to Donald Graves who died on Tuesday, Sept 28, age 80 from complications from pneumonia. My own teaching is deeply infused with his teaching and ideals. This is a true loss to the literacy community.

Good tips on things to keep handy during guided reading. Especially like the browsing boxes of books recently read for kids to access when they finish the day's reading.
