Reading Expectations In Our Classroom

Every teacher has there own reading expectations. I have tried to tailor my reading expectations to fit my students as much as possible. I try to make my expectations as "real world" as I can, while still encouraging a love of reading and requiring reading.

1. We read every day

1. We write a response about our reading every day (or we attempt)

1. We submit our best response every Friday to be assessed

1. We read the entire time

1. We can abandon or quit books
