New audio books!

Hiya,
I have just brought some new audio books for my class to listen to, the old ones have lasted three years! Quite good going! Haha!

They are Roald Dahl - 10 audiobooks....I am hoping I can find at least 3 of each book in my school now so that they can read as they listen!!
 will let you know how they go down!

Guided Reading

Hiya,
I am trying to make my Guided Reading sessions a bit more exciting.
My current sessions involve:-

• Group Reading with me
• Group listening and reading at the listening station
• Group playing a reading game ( can be quite noisy so would like to change this)
• Group silent reading
• Group completing a task on the book we read together the day before - could be an AR test

As I said above - the reading game I would like to change as it can sometimes ruin the calm environment as the kids get soooooo excited they can be a bit loud.
I would also like to add a few more choices into the task group,  does anyone have any ideas to help?
In my school the activities have to be reading based so no handwriting etc.

Any ideas welcome please :)
