This document is a rubric for assessing student use of reading comprehension strategies during conferring sessions. It evaluates students on 8 strategies: activating prior knowledge, questioning, making inferences, visualizing, determining importance, synthesizing, and using fix-up strategies. For each strategy there are 4 levels of performance from consistent and proficient use (4 points) to no use (1 point). The rubric also includes space to record strategy focus/goals, scores for multiple sessions, and notes/observations.
