Lesson: Reader's workshop needs order
==> Read a story where chaos rules (The Day Jimmy's Boa ate the Wash)
==> Discuss chaos.
==> Ask the children why chaos is a bad thing.
==> Should reader's workshop be a place of chaos or order?
==> Why do you think order is important in reader's workshop?
==> Today I want you to think about what reader's workshop should look like and what it should sound like.
==> Make a chart of the children's suggestions. (Quiet, no walking around, no interrupting, busy brains, everybody
reading, working, etc)
==> Tell the children that we are going to try it for a few minutes and see how it goes. Have the kids go to their
tables and read quietly for a few minutes.

Lesson: Shelving books
==> Put out a stack of books on the floor.
==> Remind the students of the previous lesson on caring for books.
==> Review the care chart
==> Point out the books on the floor and suggest that we need to put them away.
==> Wonder aloud how you might know where to put them.
==> Many kids will have noticed that the books are numbered.
==> Look at the different numbers. Take the first book in the pile, look at the numbers and see if the kids can point
out where you should put it.
==> Tell the kids that there are a lot of books in this pile. That's a lot of work to put all those books way. Suggest
that you will just put them all in the bucket closest to you. See what they say.
==> Ask the kids why they think the buckets are numbered. (Makes it easier to find a book you want, helps keep the
books organized)
==> Have children help you return the books to the appropriate bins.
==> Remind children that even if it seems easier at the time, in the long run it wastes more time if books aren't where
they are supposed to be.
