  1. Assessment in Reader’s Workshop Student Accountability Assessment

  2. Student Accountability Responding to Literature In the Reader’s Notebook

  3. I ask students to use task sheets when I just want them to do a quick task during Reading Workshop time. I want my students reading for the majority of the Workshop time and am careful not to always give them tasks that take up the entire time that should be spent reading self-selected texts from their book box.

  5. Other Ideas for Responding to Reading make suggestions to other readers talk about text reflect in writing question the text sketch ideas about texts write to the author book clubs inquiry projects book reviews reader’s theater blog about it 25% retell what happened- 75% react to what happened book talks letter to teacher make a story board make a CLOZE activity make the book into a play re-read the book with cool voices practice reading like a teacher rewrite an ending

  6. We need to remember that what we do AFTER reading is not more important than READING itself.

  11. Pros and Cons of Leveling Books for DRA Pros Provides support for teachers’ decision Provides support for readers making appropriate selections Encourages teachers to attend to the supports and challenges in texts Provides novice teachers with a place to start Cons Problems with criteria used in leveling text Readers see themselves as a level rather than a reader Overemphasis on decoding in leveling Limits access to reading material Takes ownership and responsibility away from readers

  12. Some Final Considerations Grading = Placing Numeric Value on Products and Processes It is all Subjective. Grade portfolios of work, not single pieces where possible. Involve Students!

  13. Every minute spent assessing may be better spent teaching if we don’t USE the information generated.
