Use these reading check-ins and recording logs to hold students accountable during workshop time. Invite English and Spanish-speaking students to respond to reading by answering comprehension questions about their books. With over 70 different exit ticket questions focused on characters, plot, text-connections, language, and nonfiction reading, students will maintain interest over time.
