This includes 30 different questions, an answer key, and a template for students to use and record their answers. I use these task cards in a couple different ways. First, I tape them around the room. I show students where each card is at so that they understand how the activity flows. If I have the students participate whole group by "scooting," I will play a song and that is their signal to move to the next spot. Other times, I may have students complete this as a center or independent/quiet

Throughout the week, I require my students to read at least 15 minutes each night. This past year, my colleague and I decided to incorporate reading response notebooks. We used these prompts for students & it was a great resource to have to showcase student growth throughout the year. We gave these prompts to our students to cut out and paste into their notebooks. We only assigned 2-3 prompts per week. You could also do this in class or as part of a center choice.

My goal is for students to know exactly what is expected for each choice so that I am able to meet will small groups or confer with students. Additionally, each of the options are skills discussed

These titles can be printed off and used for a daily agenda. I laminated them and put a magnet on the back of each item to use in my classroom so that they can easily be changed.
