Reading Requirement

Beginner

The reader chose not to complete the weekly reading requirement. Activities were unfinished, and the student was not prepared to participate fully in individual or group activities.
Apprentice

The reader had some of the reading requirement finished, but was unable to participate completely in this week's activities. The book may have been forgotten at some point either at home or at school, and this contributed to the reader being unable to finish the assignment. The bookmark may have been either unsigned or not returned for check-in.
Expert

The book was taken home each night and brought to school each day per Mrs. Smith's directions. The bookmark was signed by a parent and returned for check-in.

Self Evaluation

Beginner

I realize that I did not put my best effort into literature circles this week. I didn't follow directions and didn't give my all for my group. I need to make some changes so that I don't let them, or myself, down next time.
Apprentice

I know that I did a nice job during literature circles this week. I followed most of the directions, participated some, and learned a few things, too. Next time, there are a few things I could do differently to make myself more proud!
Expert

I know that I did my absolute best work for my literature circle group this week. I followed all directions, participated a lot, and learned a whole bunch! I am proud of the work I did!
