A parent communication tool to guide new first graders through the transition from kindergarten. Adorable graphics adorn this download. For the tune to the song visit by cutting and pasting: http://youtu.be/akI4ptWWN54

I use this rubric to help my students access their own on-task behavior during reading, as well as helping them switch tasks during reading in an organized way. The key helps each student evaluate and color in the correct number of owls based on their performance.

Here is a simple book report form that could be used as part of Daily 5 or as a homework assignment. I plan on having my students do a weekly book report as their homework. I will use this form and I hope you might find it useful too!
