November 12 ~ ALL READING BLOCKS

Today was a center day.  Students completed 2 out of the 4 centers today.  Work done at the Fluency and Reading Skill centers should be done in class.  Students need to use their time wisely to get all the work done and receive full credit.  They will not be taking this work home as homework.  

Center 1: Lit Circle

     Students should have read their novel and completed their job.  If these are not done, students receive a 0.  They need to stay up to date so we can have a good discussion on the book.  Each block/class/group is reading a different story.  

Center 2: Silent/AR Read

     Students have about 20 minutes to silent read.  They may read their novel or an AR book of their choice.  Also during this time they may take an AR test.  

Center 3: Fluency

     This week in fluency students are seeing how many syllables they can read in a minute.  They record their scores in the notebook.    

Center 4: Reading Skill ~ Steps in a Process

     This week we are working on steps in a process.

Homework: Lit Circle ~ don't forget to read your book and do your job.  AR ~ you should be reading at least 20-30 minutes every night so that you can meet your goal.
