Creating Critical Readers Through an Integrated Reading/Writing Assessment


Workshop   +   Assessment   +   Middle School
Do you feel as though you are dragging your students through novels? Do you want to find ways to teach active reading skills? In this workshop, two sixth grade humanities teachers will describe how they created two new assessments that breathe life into the teaching of reading. With a scored discussion and an integrated reading/writing assessment as their goals, students develop critical reading skills that engage them in literature. Students learn to think while they read, raising the level of questioning and analysis. Workshop participants will learn how to implement these two assessments, and will discuss ideas for classroom activities. As a result, participants will leave with an understanding of how to make their students more critical readers, writers and thinkers, and will know how to incorporate scored discussions and the integrated reading/writing assessment activities into their everyday teaching.
