What educators are saying
Description
Give your 5th, 6th, 7th, and 8th grade students meaningful homework where they can read a fiction or non-fiction text of their choice and apply a wide-variety of reading prompts to the section of the text they read each night. Interactive reading logs provide a necessary bridge between students, teachers, and parents. They were created using the 5th, 6th, 7th, and 8th reading standards for literature and informational texts. Beyond the Common Core, the reading prompts will ensure that students are thinking within, beyond, and about the text while using reading processing skills such as summarizing, making connections, predicting, inferring, synthesizing, analyzing, and critiquing.
