I get reflective at the end of the year, don't you? I wonder if I've done everything I could, to get kids to fall in love with reading or if I should have done something differently. Or more of.
This year, rather than wonder, I asked my students to respond to a Google Form I'd created. I wanted it to be anonymous so they'd feel like they could be honest without worrying about hurting my feelings.
I was surprised by several of their responses! Here's the one I should have trusted, but still, it surprised me. Does it surprise you?
85% of my students thought reading their independent book in class helped them become a stronger reader.I guess I shouldn't be surprised.
But I am.
By the high percentage.
Second place went to read-alouds.....
So, if you're wondering what one group of 6th graders thinks, there you have it. Guess what we'll be doing more of in class next year!
