Reading Counts
Each marking period, students will be expected to complete independent reading on a book of their choice and lexile level. The number of books per marking period are posted above. Students will be given time in class to read each day. They are also expected to read for 30 minutes each night as a part of their ELA homework. Once a student completes a book, they will take a Reading Counts quiz based on what they read and the score of the quiz will count as a quiz grade. The students will also hand in an organizer with each book, which will count as a homework grade. If the students take a quiz and do not pass, they will be given another opportunity to change the quiz grade upon the teacher discretion.
