Next Week

I am meeting with students next week (hopefully, Monday) to discuss their Reader's Notebook and reading logs.  Students should be keeping up with these and reading every night at home.  Some students will need to work on their notebooks this weekend. There grade will be recorded as a test grade.  This is very important.  

Things I will be looking for:

Accurately recording novels in notebook:
Page numbers, Genre, Date completed, Author and Title
Number of novels read so far
Variety of Genres
Organization
Journal Responses
Reading Levels


I will also be sending home an orange sheet with their CFA scores (benchmarks) and Lexile Scores.  Please read over these, sign and return to school.
