What (and how) we feel about testing...

Here are some things you were thinking about testing this week. Let's help each other think about how to help one another to do our best and "show what we know!"  Remember, you will be taking a READING test, not a "what you already know or think" test! :)  You did very well this past week, and I am very proud of you!

Cyber Reading Log - Block 3

We seem to be reading quite a few good books lately, so I thought it would be fun to share our reading and thinking through our blog.  Here's what to do...

1. Do some reading - savor your book and do some deep thinking
2. On the blog, tell the title and author of your book
3. Write a brief summary of your reading
4. Add your thinking, questions, wonderings, noticings, inferences, visions, connections, etc.

Feel free to comment on each other's entries...ask questions, give comments, agree or disagree.

Be sure to use your initials, student number, and block number.  I look forward to reading your entries!
