Second Grade Affective Reading Assessment Objectives: This assessment can be used to assess how interested or disinteresed students are in reading. This assessment can be used by the teacher to change the way he or she teaches or approaches reading in the classroom. This affective assessment will allow the teacher to see where his or her students' interest needs to be sparked. This assessment also allows teachers to better understand why their students may have varying reactions to certain assignments. Future Instruction for class: Continue to encourage the students to read. Always have books available for students to read during their down time during the school day. Encourage the students to read at home with a parent or individually by creating reading charts. The reading charts can be used to promote reading at home. The teacher can determine how the charts can be filled but should offer some sort of reward for filling a chart. (ex. For every 20 minutes a student reads at home they recieve a sticker on their reading chart. When the chart is filled the student gets to pick a book to keep from a selected area of the classroom.)

Furture Instruction for students sampled: Encourage the students to become more comfortable sharing their work or reading with others. Allow the students time to read with a partner during the school day. Always allow the students the opportunity to share their work but so not require them to. Offer opportunites for students to write freely and not just about required readings or writing projects in class. The sampled students will also greatly benefit from the instructions inlcuded for the entire class.
