ELA - Reading Fluency Self-Assessment - Junior/Intermediate

Beyond the primary grades teachers often seem to forget about checking students reading fluency. This is a simple to use form for students to provide themselves a self-feedback on their read aloud fluency. Teachers can then use the same form to provide their own feedback on the students reading fluency. File states to use Audacity (a free download online) but other recording programs/devices may be used - this is just a personal choice/what is available on our school computers. Included in this package is how I used this program successfully in my classroom. Please don't forget to take a look at the other items I have available in my store!

Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry chapters 1-3 quiz answers included
By The Red-Haired Reader
This product is a quiz with questions from chapters 1-3. I use it as a reading check to make sure my students are keeping up and understanding the text. There is a sequencing events section, a characterization matching section, and a true/ false plot section. There are 25 questions in total. I've formatted the quiz so it is on a half sheet of paper, with the first two sections on the front and the third on the back, so you will have to make double- sided copies and then cut them in half. Answers are included! Thank you so much.
Independent Reading Accountability Rubric for self assessment
By The Red-Haired Reader
Are you in need of a way to encourage your students to come to class prepared and ready to read independently? Do you want to reward those who consistently do their best, and motivate those who could be doing better? Do you like to use self-assessment tools in class to hold your students accountable? Check out my rubric!
This is an independent reading preparedness and preparation rubric I use to make sure students come to class prepared to read, and stay focused and respectful to their peers while reading in class. It is a 4 point rubric, and focuses on preparedness and performance. Students use it to self-assess their own reading habits, and set a goal to work towards at the bottom. Then I go in and score them with a different color pen on the rubric, so they can see where they believe they are, and where I believe they are on the rubric.
