Summary: Good-bye Round Robin, updated edition: 25 Effective Oral Reading STrategies
Comment: This book reads just like the last edition of good-bye Round Robin. I wanted something more. I had to keep checking to see that I wasn't reading my old book.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Fantastic ideas for new teachers
Comment: If you've been teaching for awhile and actively try to avoid round-robin, you'll end up finding and using these ideas without even knowing it. I was recommended this book and so purchased it, to find out none of the ideas were new to me!
I would recommend this book to new teachers, or teachers who don't have a chance to read magazines or attend workshops about reading strategies. If you are one of these two types of teachers, the book will be extremely helpful to you!!

Summary: Round Robin Review by Dr. Kimberly Tyson
Comment: I love this book because it offers easy-to-implement fluency strategies. A teacher I work with calls it her "Fluency Bible" and keeps it next to the guided reading area in the classroom. I give this book away to every school that I work with and every workshop I conduct on Reading Fluency! Easy to read - practical - strategy & research-based - it's the best!

Comment: This is a must have for each and every teacher out there. No student should be allowed to graduate and become certified in teaching without reading and responding to this book.

Summary: There's a strategy to fit your teaching style!
Comment: Good-bye Round Robin contains 25 oral reading strategies that stay away from traditional round-robin reading. Included in each strategy description are sections where teachers explain how they use/manage that strategy, extentions on the strategy are provided, and book/poem titles are suggested. Many chapters include easy reference check lists that tell which strategies can be used to assess which skills, as well as record keeping check lists created specifically for that strategy....a real time saver. Having over 17 years teaching experience, it was reassuring to know that I stumbled upon some of the explained strategies in my career (and they're good). The book also gave me new strategies (and variations on old ones) that I can use in my middle school classroom. I recommend this book to starting teachers who are looking to add to their "tool belt" of skills, and to veteran teachers who are seeking effective, meaningful oral reading strategies.
