Re: five finger rule?

[Carole Ashbridge <ashbridg@ALDUS.NORTHNET.ORG>]

If you ask a student to read a page of a book and s/he comes across a word
that is not in her/his vocabulary, then 1 finger is raised.  If by the
time the student is done with the page all five fingers (4 and a thumb,
actually) are raised, then the book is considered too hard.  It is a good
way for a student to self evaluate.
