Reading a standard notation

Hi all!

My next short term goal i sight-reading standard notation and, of course, playing it in "real time". Of course I come up to a problem so there is a question - do you guys read "in front" of current playing for let's say entire measure so you could make a fingering for whole measure which would minimize the finger movement or there is some other glitch? Reading and playing one by one note in real time is pretty damn hard because of too much finger movings....

Comments?

Wish I could help you, but its new to me as well, I can {depending on the tune} stay about 1 measure ahead, but I'm still trying to learn all of the "rests" "repeat" etc. symbols...stick with it, it has to get easier sometime. Hopefully someone knows a trick or two to help us along.
