At Dupont we have a 30 minute block called Supplemental.  During Supplemental time, we work with small groups that are struggling in areas in reading.  I form my groups by tracking data on the weekly tests.  Often children rush through parts of the test and don't really think thoroughly. This week I had the kids that did a really good job on test use blogging as a reward.  They got to blog on our website about their favorite story in Theme 2 and their favorite part.  The students thought this was really "cool" and I am hoping it will motivate some of them to slow down and take their time!
