Lesson goals/objectives  
- To assess student’s reading and writing attitudes and interest
- To assess student’s writing

Procedures
- Get To Know You Jar: Prepare a jar with an assortment of “get to know you” questions inside. Allow the student to pick a question. If they want to, they can read it, but if not, read it for them. Both you and the student will answer the questions. (10 minutes)
- Attitude Assessment: Use the provided aptitude assessment questions. Prepare a paper with a range of emojis from “very excited” to “angry,” and allow the student to point at an emoji as a response to the questions you read out loud. Keep track of which emoji the student picks for each question. (7 minutes)
- Interest Assessment: Come up with a list of reading- and writing-related activities. Ask the student to rate each activity on a scale from 1 to 10. Don't spend too long on this, because several of the questions from the Get To Know You Jar also serve as ways to discover the student’s interests. (5 minutes)
- Writing Vocabulary Assessment: Give the student a blank piece of paper and say, “I want to see how many words you can write. Can you write your name?” Prompt them to keep writing other words they know. While the student is writing, take notes on what they're writing, how they're thinking of words, etc. They will have ten minutes. Afterward, put the paper away for scoring later. (10 minutes)
- Storybook reading: Read the book "Mercy Watson to the Rescue" by Kate DiCamillo. (10 minutes)
