Information on Reading Logs and Spelling Homework


Back to School Night was a success! Thank you to all parents and guardians that took the time to visit room B-5.

As the title to this blog post suggests, this post will cover important information regarding reading logs and spelling homework.

Reading Logs:

  • Reading logs are due every Monday.
  • The first reading log will be due Monday, September 15.
  • Students will be required to make sure their book is at or slightly above their reading level.
  • Visit www.lexile.com to verify the Lexile level of a book.
  • Don’t your child get behind! Verify that their reading log is being completed. Check their work on Wednesday and Friday. Sunday night will be too late!

  1. Will the students be taking the STAR assessment or something like it to determine their current lexile numbers or did they take it already, thanks.

    1. Hi Katherine!
      Students will take the STAR Reading Assessment September 15th. I’ll send out more details to parents this week, but for the time being students are logging their book’s Lexile level and whether or not the book is too easy or too difficult. Once we have the STAR results, those Lexile numbers might change. I’ll keep you updated.
