Untitled. The Phenomenon of the 100 Page Club by Stephanie Severson. At the beginning of my language arts classes all students read 10-15 minutes with a book of their choice.
Students are expected to read an additional 20 minutes outside of class. I don’t use a book log, but do take a quick status of the class after we finish reading. This is one of the most important check-ins I do with students. I have a simple chart with names and five columns for days of the week. I write down the book title and then a page number everyday. About mid-way through the year I starting noticing that more and more students were reading 100 pages from day to day.
I had an empty bulletin board at the back of my room. At the end of the month, I typed all the names into Wordle.net to create a word cloud. I asked a few students who have their name up on the paper for the first time this month, and here are the responses I received. “The more you read, the more the book gets good, and so you want to read even more!” I will continue to do this next year.

My students work so hard each and every day trying to progress in reading, each at their own level and at their own pace. But one time in which we all come together each day is when we share a read-aloud. My students are some of the best kids in town! Most of the books on the list will be used within our thematic units during our shared reading or story time. Sign In. Storybird - Artful Storytelling. Gone Google Story Builder. Inklewriter.
Winter 2013 - Flipped Events. Home. 21stCenturyLearning@SunPrai. Curriculet. Curriculet frees up my time outside of the classroom - no more collecting reading questions, trying to spot-check them, giving points for writing something down, whether or not they actually did the reading or understood it. - Jessica Rice, English Teacher at Summit Preparatory High School With Curriculet, I can not only change our reading instruction on a classroom level by flipping the instruction, but also influence reading instruction on a departmental level by encouraging the department to expand the curriculum: we can read MORE in less time with Curriculet. - Kate Baker, English teacher at Southern Regional high School I cannot WAIT to share this with my colleagues.
This is going to revolutionize the way I can teach info texts, short stories, and excerpts from novels! - Morgan Toal, English teacher at Lakewood middle school. Nonfiction Literacy and Current Events.
