Grade 7 and Grade 8 students will be completing diagnostic reading assessments in class. These assessments are not for "marks" as students often ask. They are simply used as a tool to guide instruction. :) Throughout the year we will be tracking progress; identifying strengths and areas in need of more support.
Students are to read 20 minutes at home each day or 140 minutes per week to meet reading expectations. Some nights may be busier than others so 140 minutes overall is the minimum goal per week. Each child has a reading log to update each day.
Thank you and have a great day!
