I think it would depend on your goal for teachers. If strategy instruction
is the goal, I think Strategies That Work is a little more user friendly -
something teachers can read and then try right away since there are sample

A colleague really likes this book but I have not had the chance to really
explore it. What do you like/dislike about this 3 Minute Assessment?

So glad we are discussing ways to monitor fluency to increase reading
comprehension!
This year in my fifth grade class, I felt frustrated because a few students
slipped through the cracks. Their fluency with Open Court one-minute tests
was around 80-90 words per minute, but what shocked me was th
Yea, I think you're right. However, in my experience, the older the book
looks the harder it is to get the kids to pick up the books off the
shelves. Even if I book talk it.

I like to let my kids choose a book from the
$0.95-2.00 range on the April or May Scholastic book
order. Some years, I let them choose a book from MY

personal. And although I know what my students
I would agree that writing is expressive. I am not so sure reading is
receptive. Of course, it starts out as receptive as the reader receives the
input (the author's text). BUT then I tend to believe it becomes

I studied the first edition pretty deeply in my Master's classes. I have
found the 2nd one to be remarkably different. I would get the second one.
It is geared a little more toward the issues we face today verses ten years

I agree with Lori. And I value Sandra Wilde's book on Miscue Analysis very

Thank you!! Now we have--not a mosaic graphic for strategies--but a
carefully woven-by-hand graphic for reading/writing. Maybe not new, but I
love to think of it. And we could go a little further, maybe. For
