Conferring with Readers: Assessment Rubric, K-2

About this teaching resource

Conferring with students is a unique and significant opportunity to learn about what a student is doing as a reader/writer as we engage with them side by side during the Reading Conference.

This resource, Conferring with Readers: Assessment Rubric, K-2, allows you to have a comprehensive eye on the child as they are reading, and also during your discussions in your 1:1 conference with them.

It will help you jointly set the next reading goals.

The assessment rubric is divided into:

• Habits and behaviours
• Accuracy
• Comprehension

Use our other 'related; conferring recording tools below as a way to capture your noticings and interactions with the student.

These recording tools allow you to:

• Keep brief records that remind you about what was discussed
• Give the learner the confidence and knowledge to know what they are doing well and what they can do to continue to grow.
