The market-leading, reliable, and easy-to-use informal assessment instrument. The QRI-6 continues to emphasize the authentic assessment of children’s reading abilities–from the earliest emergent readers to advanced readers. This popular resource provides graded word lists and numerous passages designed to assess a student’s oral reading accuracy, rate of reading, and comprehension of passage read orally and silently. Several unique features set it apart from other resources in the field, including narrative and expository passages at each level from pre-primer through high school, as well as all self-contained selections being highly representative of the structure and topics of materials found in basal readers and content-area textbooks. For example, passages at the pre-primer through second grade levels are presented with pictures, and maps and illustrations are part of the expository selections at fourth grade through high school levels. The QRI-6 measures comprehension in several ways that allow an examiner to label a passage as familiar or unfamiliar to each student: by analyzing the student’s retelling or summarization; by looking at the student’s answers to explicit and implicit comprehension questions; through the answers to complex inference questions recommended by the Common Core State Standards; through the use of look-backs, which separate what readers remember from what they comprehend; and through the use of think-alouds at the sixth grade level and above to analyze the student’s thoughts during reading. These measurement tools presented in the QRI-6 contribute to its widespread popularity as a superb informal reading inventory.

Intervention Strategies to Follow Informal Reading Inventory Assessment Book PDF/Epub Download

"To help teachers connect students' performance and evaluation to instruction, best-selling authors JoAnne Caldwell and Lauren Leslie outline practical intervention strategies that are aligned with any informal reading inventory. Written with the firm belief that a student's performance on any evaluation instrument should be specifically connected to instruction in the intervention sessions that follow, this book provides a clear understanding of how to connect assessment and instruction and specifically tie informal reading inventory assessment and intervention instruction together. Arguing that there is a disconnect between the assessment of reading and the design of instructional activities to improve it, the renowned authors of the Qualitative Reading Inventory (QRI), JoAnne and Lauren discuss how this disconnect stands in the way of implementing effective programs for struggling readers. Intervention strategies guide teachers to connect assessment results on an informal reading inventory with specific aspects of intervention instruction. Intervention Strategies to Follow Informal Reading Inventory Assessment is ideal for teachers seeking a systematic perspective to how intervention should be based on assessment."--publisher website.
