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
