- I typically use our corporation assessment of reading which includes a running record and rubric. I complete a DRA2 three times a year on each student and four times a year on my struggling readers. I love using projects and book discussions with my literacy circles that are done bi-weekly or as a literacy group finishes a book. Each student keeps a personal reading inventory folder which they list each book they have read independently or at home. In second grade I use our corporation report card to grade reading, which simply states the DRA2 level and if the student is below-level, on-level, or above – level.
- Rubrics are a great way for students to see exactly what is expected of them. I have created a story writing rubric, that I would use on a published story.
- Proficiency Group – students share a common strength or are working on a common instructional need. Deliberately Heterogeneous Groups – a group set up to counteract the potentially negative effects of proficiency grouping. Formal Cooperative Group – heterogeneous groups taught to work together as a team. Interest Group – students who share a common interest. Literature Group – students are reading the same text independently and meet to discuss it and respond to it. Project Group – students working together to produce a project, such as a skit, poster, video, or play.
