Assessment that Accelerates + Case Studies to Prove It

A link to the PDF of the handouts of the presentation slides from the June 2017 monthly workshop.

Links mentioned in workshop:

• Morrison-McCall Spelling Test
• Free, online non-word decoding test at Lexercise
• U.S. national norms for fluency, by Hasbrouck & Tindal
• One Minute Reading Test, paper test by Martin Turner with approximate norms

Look for a Word Identification test, the San Diego Quick Assessment, in the Resources unit.

P.S. Since this Course was originally filmed, I’ve learned more about assessment. The TOWRE-2 by Torgesen and colleagues would be a better Word Identification test than the Woodcock Johnson because it’s timed.

Also, the nonsense word test in the presentation is no longer there, but here’s a substitute to consider: http://literacyreferencelem.pbworks.com/f/nonwordtest.pdf
