This session we did the PREL word list. He did a little better with this list then he did with the QRI list. However, he still didn't pass at a proficient level. Faye was able to secure a LAS assessment. I am not too familiar doing the assessment but I did it anyways. He scored about 50% on the vocabulary section of the test. He got one correct on the next session. I am not sure how to score but I'll figure it out. We did the narrative part of the pre-primer of the QRI. I'm understand that we need to have something to include in our report however I'm still confused as to way we have to do assessment which we know doesn't apply. The pre-primer list was scored at the frustration level. The QRI seems to be designed in such a way that if they are scored at frustration level that they don't move on to the next assessment.

Alan,
ReplyDeleteI understand what you are trying to say, however, for the purpose of the diagnostic case report, it is imperative that you conduct all the QRI pre-primer assessment activities to show additional data that you've exhausted them and the evidence is apparent in the consistent data that you've collected. You would mention this in your report.
With regards to the LAS assessment, it should actually be administered by those who are trained to use it. Nevertheless, as a former ESL SPC, I'm sure Faye can give you additional insight.
Now that I've provided you with the RSN pre-literacy assessment, you should be able to utilize various activities to assess your student's reading level. Good luck, and keep me posted.
Best regards,
