Description

  1. Imagine that your principal has asked you to develop a brochure for the district's first-year elementary teachers about the types of formal and informal reading assessments available for them to use in their classroom. You are given the choice to target teachers of grades K-3 or grades 4-6.
    Choose a grade level to target (K-3 or 4-6).
    Create a detailed brochure that would inform first-year teachers of the different assessment methods they might use to measure their students' reading skills. Keep in mind that some assessments might overlap between grades K-3 and 4-6, but others would be more appropriate for either the lower or the upper grades.
    Include the following components in your brochure:
    • At least three informal reading assessment methods and three formal reading assessment methods appropriate for the grade levels you are addressing
    • At least one assessment for each of the following categories:
    • Screening
    • Diagnostic
    • Progress monitoring
    • Outcomes-based
    • Include the following for each of the assessment methods:
    • Type of assessment (formal/informal)
    • Purpose of assessment
    • Skills assessed
    • Manner in which assessment is administered (e.g., whole group, one-on-one, computer)
    • Frequency in which assessment is given
    • Any other unique or pertinent information about the assessment
    • Graphics and images, as appropriate, to make the brochure visually appealing
