Reading minutes can also include books from the category list for the library “Tower of Book Challenge”.  We only have 8 books, I know we are reading so much more than that.  Keep it up Mrs. Nelson’s class-let’s catch up to Mrs. Dunmeyer’s 28 books!

3- Timed Fluency Reading Passages 
This activity should be completed Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday.  
  1. Visit the following website: http://www.haslett.k12.mi.us/education/components/scrapbook/default.php?sectiondetailid=11283&
  2. Select a “Level 100″ reading passage.  For this week, please read passage # 121 (The Sun, the Moon, and the Stars) for MONDAY and TUESDAY, and passage #122 (The Sun) for WEDNESDAY and THURSDAY. 
  3.  Complete a one-minute timed reading and record your score on the Homework Form. Feel free to use this online timer: http://www.online-stopwatch.com/timer/1minute/ Find your score by subtracting the number of incorrect words read from the total number of words read in one minute (for instance, if you read 98 words, but read 5 of the words incorrectly, your score would be 93).   
  4. Re-tell the story with as much detail as possible, and in your own words, to a parent, using the guidelines described below:
Non-Fiction Re-tell Rope 3Fiction Re-Tell Rope 3














If you are able to read the entire passage in less than a minute:
 start again at the top of the passage and read as many more words as you can until the one-minute timing is over.  For scoring, include the total words read during the entire minute. For instance, if you read the entire passage (137 words) and then read part of it again (39 words) before the one-minute timing was over, your score would be 176 (if you had no mistakes).
