My students have been absolutely obsessed with rainbows this year, so I gave this common retell practice a makeover by adding a simple splash of color! Let me just say… my students LOVED IT!

I use this product in both whole group and small group settings!! Curious? Here's how!

Whole group:

While reading our Wonders weekly stories, my students will be asked to turn to their partners and give a retell of the story. Sometimes we do this after each page, sometimes halfway through the story, sometimes after we're done. Why? My kids have learned quickly to pay attention to what we're reading because you never know when a partner retell is coming!

Small group:

Mondays are fluency day in our class!

First, we discuss what type of text we're reading based on the title. We get our partners and quickly decide who's reading first and who's giving feedback first. After the minute timer goes off, the reading partner uses the printout as a guide for their retell based on if the story is fiction or nonfiction. Feedback partner listens and uses to rubric and dry erase markers (we keep ours in our sheet protectors to cut down on copies).

It's been a great experience!

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.
