Sample Reading Goal Reflection for This Weekend's HW


Sample Reading Goal Reflection

Reading Goals 
Goal I Made Up -        Make more time for reading fiction books.
Goal Mr. H Made Up- Try some new authors.
Class Goal -                Read the same books at home and school.

This week I read a few books for my USC class. One was Literacies of Power and I cannot remember the name of the other book. I read the USA Today each morning while I ate my breakfast and also read a few articles about the Cardinals baseball team on espn.com. Before bed each night, I read Alabama Moon to Muluken and Ty.

I read two fiction books. One was called The Lone Ranger and Tonto Get into a Fistfight in Heaven. I’m not sure I like this book very much. It is full of short stories but I have not read them all yet. I’ve only read the first two or three. Maybe it will get better. The other fiction book was Alabama Moon. It is very good. There are a few bad words in it but we have talked about how hearing a bad word doesn’t mean we have to say it. We are old enough to understand this.

Both fiction books I am reading are by authors I have never read before. One of them is Sherman Alexie. He has another book I think I might like to try called The Absolutely True Story of a Part-Time Indian.

Because I spend our reading time meeting with the readers in our classroom I do not really get to read in class. I do all my reading at home. I do read Swindle each day as well as other picture books to the class but I cannot read these at home because these are stories we all share together.

****Notice how I told what books I read this week and then talked about each of my goals. ****
