Teacher Notes (not visible to students)
This activity helps students practice reading aloud, find main ideas and details, and reflect on how setting and characters shape a story. Use the three short auto-graded questions to check factual understanding and the two open responses to evaluate deeper thinking. Seesaw will provide automatic scoring for the ReadingFluency questions — listen to recordings to confirm accuracy and note fluency or pronunciation issues. For the open-ended paragraph (page 7), a high-quality answer will describe Rowley’s feelings about his street using examples from the text (e.g., selling ice cream, climbing trees, wanting to build). For the multimedia response (page 9), a strong response will clearly explain one thing Rowley likes and one thing he wishes to do, spoken clearly with complete sentences. Teachers can mark those responses correct/incorrect based on whether students use evidence and speak clearly.
