This section should include:
▪

answered/missed. Attach assessment protocols as pdf documents.
▪
An explanation of what the data means.
A.
READING
Qualitative Reading Inventory (QRI): Narrative Passages.
The Qualitative Reading Inventory consists of graded reading passages appropriate for pre
-
primer through high
school readers. Concept questions assess a student’s general background knowledge before reading the passage,
while post
-
reading oral questions as
sess comprehension of what has been read.
In the grid below, indicate the grade level for each score. Silent Comprehension is optional.
Report scores only if you gave enough levels of Silent reading to establish these scores
Independent
Instruction
al
Frustration
Oral Reading
Fluency (WPMC)
Comprehension
Listening Comprehension
What observations can you point out about from administering the QRI? What can you deduce about trends in
miscues? Can you note specific examples? Is
your student extremely accurate but slow in fluency? Are there
any trends with comprehension? What do you notice about explicit vs implicit question responses? Are there
prior knowledge links to comprehension scores?

Assessment Report
CBA: Reading
Curriculum
-
based assessments measure a student’s oral reading accuracy and fluency on grade

level material.

You may use the QRI passage written at the student’s grade level for this task, or district
-
provided CBA passages if these
are available to you.
Have the student read for one minute and compute Percent of Words Read Accurately (%
acc) and WPMC.
Interpret these scores. Is the student’s grade
-
level reading at Independent, Instructional, or Frustration level?
How does the WPMC correct compare to the Hasbrouck and Tindahl national fluency norms for his grade? What
percentile? The norm

Analysis Test

Revised)
This is a test of phonological awareness, the ability to analyze spoken words by deleting specified syllables or
sounds, for example: “Say ‘flake.’ Say it again, but don’t say /l/.”
▪
What were the scores (Standard Score and percentile). What did you notice?
▪
If the result of this test corroborates what you noted on the QRI, make note of it here. How? (Did your
student decode ok there? Are you noticing patterns? How about QRI miscu
es? Any connections there? )
QRI: Listening Comprehension:
Qualitative Reading Inventory passages are read to the student by the
examiner, with oral questions following each, to determine a student’s potential reading level.
▪
Instructional reading leve
l. Make a statement about how listening level corresponds to oral instructional
level. Is this student reading at expectancy level? If the listening level is low, could results be because of
an auditory memory or attention deficit? Or due to poor vocabular
y? What about explicit vs implicit
responses? What sense can you make here?
