Printable Fall Reading Journal for Second Grade

August 6, 2018 by Selena Robinson 9 Comments

Free Fall Reading Journal for Second Grade

Reading is a huge part of our homeschooling experience. I’m a bookworm and nothing would make me happier than to raise four little bookworms of my own.

In second grade, one of the objectives is for children to learn to retell the main idea and details of a story. So I put together a printable reading journal for second grade with a cute fall theme! Read on to see how we used them and to get your own!

Get kids into reading and analyzing what they read with this printable fall reading journal!

These would be wonderful for introducing kids to book reports, since you can use them to help students identify author, story, setting, and character. But they’re also a nice introduction to creative writing!

By the way, be sure to check out our second grade reading list for some awesome children’s book recommendations!

This printable fall reading journal for kids is a simple way to help children analyze the stories they read!

Fall Themed Printable Reading Journal for Second Grade

In first grade, Pooh really grew in his independent reading. I want to make sure that he keeps reading for fun this year, but we also want to make sure that he understands what he reads and can explain it to others. Enter a reading journal!

To use these printables, you’ll need the following: (Affiliate links provided for convenience. For details, see our Disclosure Policy.)

  • Printer (with ink)
  • Printer paper
  • Pencil

Reading Journal Printable for Kids

On the cover page is a spot for kids to write their names on their journals.

Printable Fall Reading Journal for Kids

The journal includes one cover page and eight journal prompts: two to be used each week.

Fall Reading Journal Pages for Kids

The first prompt asks students to identify the title of the book, the author, the main character, the setting, the problem, and the resolution. Identifying problem and resolution are the stepping stones to analyzing plot.

Fall Printable Reading Journal

On the second prompt page, kids can express their opinions about what they’ve read by explaining what they liked and didn’t like about the story.

They can also flex their creative writing muscles by rewriting the story’s ending their own way.

Printable Reading Journal for Kids

Since there are four journal sets in the product, you can use this reading journal for an entire month.

Printable Kids Reading Journal

Simply print it three times to cover the entire fall season! If you use the journal each month for three months, kids will have read and analyzed 12 stories!

How to Use a Reading Journal for Second Grade

Here’s a look at the reading journal for second grade in action.

Fall Themed Reading Journal for Second Grade

For this activity, my second-grader decided to read The Berenstain Bears and Too Much Junk Food. One of my favorites from childhood, too. 🙂

Fall Themed Reading Journal for Second Grade

After reading the book, Pooh started working on his journal. Since we’re just beginning second grade, I don’t mind letting him look back at the story to recall details for his journal pages.

As the year progresses, though, my goal is for him to remember the details on his own. I think as we use the journals more often, he’ll get an idea of what to look for as he reads.
