The CAFE Book
Engaging All Students in Daily Literacy Assessment and Instruction
Book description
Elementary teachers and education consultants Boushey and Moser outline a research-based method for integrating assessment into daily reading and classroom discussion called the CAFE system, which aims for the goals of Comprehension, Accuracy, Fluency, and Expanded vocabulary. They describe how the teacher keeps an assessment notebook, holds student conferences, plans small-group instruction based on clusters of students with similar needs, and uses whole-group instruction based on the needs of many children. They include examples of these components and link the goals of the system to examples of individual conferences. The CD-ROM contains forms.
