[MOSAIC] Round robin reading

[Carol Carlson]

Hi, all,
I'm turning to all you expert first grade teachers.
I had primary discussions yesterday with first grade teachers  
regarding round robin reading. Our state guidelines say, oral  
reading, but not round robin reading during guided reading. First  
grade teachers took issue with this, saying they needed to have oral  
reading to listen for decoding strategies.
I know there is a difference between round robin and oral reading.
My questions are:
1. Is oral reading necessary for emergent readers during guided  
reading ALL THE TIME?
2. I emphasized that by the time students are reading for  
comprehension, silent reading is encouraged. Is there a certain level  
whereby students should be reading independently rather than orally?
3. How do you balance the need to listen to students for decoding/ 
fluency with scaffolding silent independent reading?
Thanks for aly help
