Guided Reading Level E Curriculum is here! This level of Guided Reading will move students to a more independent level of reading with simple stories, basic sight words, and targeted reading strategies. In addition to these skills, the phonics skills for this level are decoding CVCe (silent e), vowel team words, y as a vowel, R-controlled vowels, consonant digraphs, vowel digraphs and vowel diphthongs.

If you missed Guided Reading Level A, Level B, Level C, or Level D, be sure to check them out! Also, now that I’ve finished Levels A-D, I’ve bundled them in my store at a discounted price! If you want to see this curriculum in action, be sure to join my private Facebook Group HERE.

WHAT IS GUIDED READING?
Guided Reading is a small group instruction, which allows the teacher to provide explicit teaching and support for reading increasingly challenging texts. As the teacher targets and implements reading strategies that help guide and support the reader, students learn to think like proficient readers.

I explained my problem to someone online and she suggested that I should contact a spell caster that could help me cast a spell to bring him back but I am the type that don’t believed in spell, I had no choice than to try it, I meant a spell caster called Dr Zuma zuk and I email him, and he told me there was no problem that everything will be okay before three days, that my ex will return to me before three days, he cast the spell and surprisingly in the second day, it was around 4pm. My ex called me, I was so surprised, I answered the call and all he said was that he was so sorry for everything that happened, that he wanted me to return to him, that he loves me so much. I was so happy and went to him, that was how we started living together happily again. Since then, I have made promise that anybody I know that have a relationship problem, I would be of help to such person by referring him or her to the only real and powerful spell caster who helped me with my own problem and who is different from all the fake ones out there.

I was doing research on how I can improve my chances of winning the lottery and I came across so many testimonies on a blog saying how dr. Kumar has helped them win the lottery by sending them the winning numbers. I was curious and I thought it was all a joke but I decided to give it a try and see for myself and I contacted this spell caster to know for myself how this works because I have spent a lot buying tickets and I never win. I contacted him and he told me the necessary thing that need to be done and i did it and he told me to wait for 2days and truly he gave me the winning numbers to play the lottery which i did, i got my tickets and play the numbers which Dr Kumar gave to me and i won the sum of $85M(85,000,000USD). I want to let you all know that online tips can not help you win the lottery. Dr Kumar is the only answer of you winning the lottery. Contact him today and get the winning numbers from him. You can contact Dr Kumar on email: spellcasttemple@gmail.com or WhatsApp +2347051705853

I’ve always dreamt of winning BIG in the lottery. I surfed the internet for help to win the lottery massively and I was directed to the DR Amber website. I had a chat with him about what I needed and he assured me that his spell will make me become a lottery winner. He got back to me after 3 days with the numbers that I needed to play the lottery and told me to believe in myself. I felt enveloped by the control of the spell. I took his words and played the Mega Millions Lottery. Two days later, I was sent an email that I’ve won the sum of 107 Million Dollars. I was shocked and couldn’t believe what my eyes were seeing. Immediately I was given the cash prize, I stopped working. I want to say a very big thank you to DR Amber for helping people like us who really need help. Now I know that there’s absolutely nothing too hard for DR Amber to do. To get in touch with him, email : amberlottotemple @ yahoo.com or click his webpage URL___ amberlottotemple . com
