Instructional Ideas

  • Perform these assessments weekly or bi-weekly to document the growth of your young readers
  • If using these assessments with special needs students, be sure to share the results with the child's homeroom/special education teacher when meeting to discuss their development and plan out future instruction

Classroom Considerations

  • Though originally designed to meet the needs of children with learning disabilities, these assessments can be used with any emergent readers
  • Assessments require one-on-one time between student and teacher, so be sure to plan accordingly

Pros

  • Assessment templates can be used repeatedly throughout the year to assess children's growth
  • Different versions of the assessment templates are provided, allowing teachers to choose the one that best fits their needs
  • Templates include room for teachers to record notes while performing the assessments

Cons
