3-Minute Reading Assessments by Scholastic Teaching Resources
Reading experts, Tim Rasinski and Nancy Padak, developed powerful assessments that help you accurately identify students' potential reading problems in just three minutes. This exciting new DVD lets you observe teachers as they assess students in word recognition, comprehension, fluency, and vocabulary. These quick assessments make it easy to pinpoint students' strengths and target areas in which they need more support.
In addition to the 35-minute disc, there is a 112-page study guide containing everything you need to begin using these assessments in your school:
• background on the assessments
• tips for watching the DVD
• teacher-workshop agendas
• reading passages to assess students in grades 1-8
• vocabulary lists to assess students in grades 1-8
• rubrics and scoring sheets
• step-by-step guidelines for administering the assessments
• record-keeping tools
As the DVD shows, the assessments are easy to administer and manage, saving you valuable classroom time so that you can focus on what's important-teaching. by Scholastic Teaching Resources
