Rubrics for Reading



Hello everybody.  It has been a wild ride here with the weather....first a two hour delay on Wednesday  morning, an early dismissal for sleet/ice on Thursday, and a two hour delay again this morning due to ice.  We live in a mountainous area with lots of drop-offs so we have a high freakability rate when it comes to inclement weather!!

Today I wanted to pose a question:  Do you use rubrics to assess reading?  As Common Core is depended on more and more and my district has encouraged the use of rubrics to assess accuracy, fluency, comprehension, understanding of fiction and non-fiction,etc--basically the whole reading enchilada--it has made me really ponder how I can increase the use of them.  It's also made me question where I can go to get information on them.  Right now I am going through a book that I have mentioned here before 


and it has several suggestions about rubrics that can be used and even suggests that these rubrics be attached to other reading assessment forms in order to fully plan for students.  When you think about how many rubrics that are needed with common core, it could lead to chaos or a lot of extra work.  

If any of you have sources for common core rubrics, please leave them in the comment section below!  I would love to get some resources gathered.
