Reading

My first grade NELP students have done very well this term on their reading quotas.

Tomorrow is the final day for book reports, and so far we have had twenty-four book reports from my seven students. These have included: 1 level five book, 1 level three book, 1 level two book, 2 level one books, and 19 level zero books.

By contrast, my fourteen second grade students have given me four book reports, including: 1 level four, 2 level three, and 1 level zero. I should note two things. One: The two students who gave me level three book reports have shown tremendous progress. They started their reading last year in Level Zero, with the easiest books and have successfully worked their way up. Two: Many of my second grade students are reading high level books, which are much longer. I have great hope that many of them will turn in substantial book reports on the last day. By contrast, however, my seven third grade students left me feeling a little disappointed. I received only seven book reports. Of those: three were progress reports on larger books. Two students turned in no book reports, an automatic loss of ten percent from their final grade in Reading, and one more student did not meet the required quota. However, two students have shown a big improvement in reading: one read 1 level one book (a lot of ones there) and another read 2 level one books. I'm quite proud of their progress.
