The Qualitative Reading Inventory (Seventh Edition) (QRI-7) assesses students’ literacy skills through graded word lists, leveled-passages, and explicit and implicit questions following oral and silent reading.
This activity engages students in evaluating authors’ purpose. Students sort passages into three categories of author’s purpose: persuade, inform, and entertain.
In this activity students will identify cause and effect relationships throughout a read aloud. This activity can be modified so students are only engaging with oral text responding through discussion.
