Weekly Reading Homework

For the Weekly Reading Homework, I ask that students read for at least 30 minutes a night, and write a quick response based on that night’s reading. Student responses will be based on five of the comprehension strategies that we will practice in class: Summarize, Make a Prediction, Make a Connection, Visualize, and Ask Questions. Below you will see what the handouts look like.  A reference sheet is also provided to help students complete their reading responses. Each Monday, students will receive a new Weekly Reading Homework handout and this will be due each Friday.  I encourage students to keep a copy of the reference sheet in their homework folder and in-class literacy folder to refer back to throughout the year.
