As a follow-up to the hugely popular book, The Daily Five, this book presents a practical way to integrate assessment into daily reading and classroom instruction. The "CAFE" system—Comprehension, Accuracy, Fluency, and Expanding vocabulary—provides a simple structure for conferring with students, tracking growth, and fostering independence. The system`s built-in flexibility allows teachers to tailor the system to reflect the needs of their students and curriculum standards.

The CAFE Book is accompanied by a CD-ROM.
