We had an assessment today on conjunctions and interjections. I was pleased to see some awesome growth on their test but I was more pleased with their comments.
For my students who finish early, I have them write me a note on the back of their tests. It could be about their clicks and clunks, it could be about the book they're reading, it could be about their spring break plans. It's a simple way for them to communicate with me privately about their learning, share information and not disturb others who are still testing (a solid win-win).
While I was grading, I found these gems:
(Her task was to write a sentence with correlative conjunctions. I'd say she nailed it!)
Yes, she wrote about shoes and shopping. I think I'm proud? Maybe I talk about my love of shoe shopping too often?
Second gem:
Yes, he gets it. I understand that sometimes, you simply can't put a book down. Our rule is not to spoil the reading for others.
Third:
Sometimes you can't pick a book to talk about...so you pick two.
Lastly:
I love that they love reading. I love that their little notes to me are a glimpse for me to see what's going on inside their brains. I love that reading is occupying most of their thoughts!
