Reading Expectations In Our Classroom
Every teacher has there own reading expectations. I have tried to tailor my reading expectations to fit my students as much as possible. I try to make my expectations as “real world” as I can, while still encouraging a love of reading and requiring reading.
Reading Expectations
- We read every day
- We write a response about our reading every day (or we attempt)
- We submit our best response every Friday to be assessed
- We read the entire time
- We can abandon or quit books
- We keep our reading log updated
- We can sit where we are comfortable
Reading Goals
- We set a monthly (and eventually quarterly) reading goal based on page numbers. 100 pages=1 book
- We can adjust the goal up until THREE DAYS before it is due
Finishing Books
- Complete a Pre-conference form
- Optional: Write a book review for this blog
- Conference with Mrs. Ennis
- Other reading assignments/tasks
