This package is designed for the teacher who needs to encourage students to read on their own, but also needs to provide progress monitoring of reading and comprehension. This package includes a calendar with chapter assignments covering a four week period. Each week has a corresponding quiz designed to verify active reading occurs. Also, a reading log with space for notes on character and plot development, vocabulary, and parent signatures is provided. Suggested usage: This lesson helps to develop and monitor student independent reading. When assigning middle school students an assignment stretching over six weeks, it is imperative to monitor their efforts. Encourage involvement by offering more than one novel option for the students. I pair Hidden Figures with I Am Malala and We Beat the Street. Perform a quick book talk and allow kids to choose between two or more selections. Making a choice makes a commitment. Included: 4 quizzes with answer key and grade conversion chart (48 total questions) Reading Schedule Calendar Reading Log (should be copied front and back for six entries per week) End of reading Novel Project Suggestions
