The Reader's Notebook is an 8 x 10 spiral notebook specially designed to promote reflection and dialogue about reading. As described in Fountas and Pinnell's best-selling Guiding Readers and Writers, Grades 3-6, the Reader's Notebook is practical and easy to use. In it, students transform traditional book reports into active dialogues. The notebook becomes a personal store-house of students' thought and feeling and a place to access them for later review, reflection, and sharing. It is also a way for teachers systematically to assess students' responses to the texts they are reading independently. The notebook helps students account for what they read and become better readers by engaging in critical thinking and reflection about how to interpret a text, connecting reading and writing in many genres, and promoting discussion. Organized into four easy-to-use, color-coded tabbed sections, the notebook also contains many different resources for writing about reading.
