Students
will be STAR tested twice a year to determine their reading level
(ZPD) and to monitor progress. Students will only be able to check out books and test within
their Z.P.D. The students are given half an hour during class everyday
for reading, testing and exchanging books at the library. I ask that
every student checks out two books at every visit
to the library. The goal for each reporting period will be different
for each student and will depend on their Z.P.D. An average
of 90% will be expected from every student at the end of every six
weeks. The students are expected to test every day, so I highly
recommend that the students take their A.R. books home every day and be
ready to test the next day. The Library opens and is available to
students at 7:45 - 3:30. Parents can visit their
child's A.R. account from home to keep abreast of their points, average,
and word count. Students who meet their goal and average at the end of
every reporting period will be attending an A.R. Party hosted by the
library.
My expectations
for my students are high, and with great strategy, planning, and plan
execution, my class will have the opportunity to earn Century Club Memberships, students who read 100 points, and Millionaire Club Memberships, students that read 1,000,000 words. We are a great team, and together we
will achieve!
