Abstract
Research in the process of balancing the reading curriculum was read, evaluated, and summarized. This research showed the need for further study in the areas of shared reading, guided reading, independent reading, and responding to literature; as combining these four components create a balanced reading program. In a balanced approach, students recieve skill and strategy instruction in addition to reading and responding to authentic literature. A yearlong balanced reading guide and ten sample supporting lessons were created for the intermediate grade teacher at Washington State Centennial Elementary in Bethel School District.
