Reading Comment Generator | Grades 9–12 | IB DP Report Cards

Write Grades 9-12 reading report comments in seconds: 360 ready-to-use, IB DP-aligned comments across five reading criteria, auto-assembled into a personalised paragraph for each student.

Report card season doesn’t have to take over your evenings. This Google Sheets reading comment generator gives you 360 carefully written, IB DP-aligned comments covering five key reading skills, and assembles a complete, personalised paragraph in seconds. The language is mature and analytical - pitched for senior literature and English students.

Type the student’s name, choose their pronouns, and set the reading context (fiction, non-fiction, or general). Tick the comments you want and your paragraph builds automatically. Copy and paste it straight into your report card system. Every comment is written for Grades 9-12 in the analytical language senior English and literature courses expect.

The five criteria (Textual Analysis, Critical Response, Vocabulary & Language, Intertextual Understanding, and Reading Habits & Independence) map onto IB DP Language A and any senior English programme, so the comments stay meaningful whatever your reporting framework.
