Grades for Reader's Workshop
By 5thGrdTeachTN

My district requires the use of Open Court Reading, but during the independent work time that is prescribed through OCR my school implements RW. Our reading grade is a 50/50 compilation of the grades in both areas. My RW
grades are comprised of the following:

*Nightly Reading Responses (2 points each if expectations were met, 3 points if they were exceeded and 1 point if the response did not meet expectations)
*Book Projects (25-50 points each graded by a rubric)
*Classwork-may be a response, chart, graphic organizer, etc. (5-10
points each)
*Literature Circle Packet/test (usually

only in the 3rd and/or 4h marking
period 50-100 points)

Between these things I usually have about 200-300 points to work with and added to the other reading grade works pretty well.
