Formative Assessment 3: The Group Discussion with Teacher Observation

Formative Assessment 4: Close Reading Discussion Grid We use this grid to teach the concept of close reading. This grid then doubles as tool to guide discussion among students in reading groups.

Formative Assessment 5: Steps to Passage Deconstruction This form allows students to walk through a passage, create and answer questions, and use reading strategies to increase comprehension. (Not to mention it covers most basic reading SOLs at one time!)
