Start by copying these bookmarks back - to- back on card stock or sturdy paper. Cut them and you're ready! Students are assigned a CAFE goal and it is written on their bookmark. They record the time/how they practiced their goal in their independent reading. The next time you meet with them, review the bookmark together. Decide if they need a new goal or should continue work on the same goal. A wonderful way to make students accountable for their learning and a nice formative assessment pie

A great way to introduce students to rubrics is by grading chocolate chip cookies. This rubric includes categories students must think about when giving each cookie a grade. This reinforces the idea that rubrics grade various qualities. Students get to sample cookies and rubrics are introduced! A short quiz is included to reinforce and assess learning.
