This sounds like five separate questions:

I taught fifth grade last year, but it was a "gifted" class.

1. What methods (s) have you used to teach reading?
a. Whole Language
b. Read 180 (blah)
c. SRA (double blah)

2. What approach are you currently using? What are the advantages and disadvantages, do you see with this approach?
a. Whole Language; we read great books together--sometimes listening to Books-on-Tape. Advantage--Great discussions; Disadvantage--No "multiple choice" items, which I still like....
3. If you could design your own reading program what would it look like? (characteristics)
a. Whole Language taking excellent novels, and making teacher-created study guides that reflect current curriculum standards.
4. What does your school do to be sure you are meeting all the state standards/benchmarks/indicator...
a. Employ a "Reading Coach" sometimes called a "Literacy Coach" who dictates what everyone must do, how they must do it, and when to do the dictated things (Triple blah)

I teach eighth grade--not gifted--this year, but I teach reading the same.

Oh yeah, we have vocabulary workbooks too, but I don't consider this as teaching reading.

Good Luck....
