Reading

Grading Rubric for Reading - This link will provide you with the rubric used for grading students on their reading skills. In fifth grade, the fluency and comprehension grade is derived from the student's Fountas and Pinnell reading assessment along with reading group meetings in the classroom.

It is important that students read daily at home to maintain and improve their reading fluency and comprehension. The reading requirement for 5th grade is to read consistently about 20 - 30 minutes each day. The reading habits grade will be based on their weekly reading responses on line as homework and student's in class daily reading responses.
