After Today After Week 1 After Week 2 After Week 3

Know how to administer and score the fall benchmark assessments.

Administer and score 5 students, then at the end of week 1, come back together for a troubleshooting and debriefing check-in.

Administer and score 5 or more students. Check in at the end of the week if necessary.

Complete and score rest of class and meet to enter data at early release day.

Benchmark Assessments

General Outcome Measures “Predictors” “Indicators”of reading

achievement Big 5 Areas – LNF assesses Phonics Standardized Research based Time Sensitive Short for “do-ability”

CBM – Curriculum Based Measurement

Early Literacy – Letter Naming Fluency Things You Need Before Testing

Student Copy of Letter Naming Fluency (not numbered)

Examiner Copy of LNF (scoring booklet) Clipboard Stopwatch – 1 minute assessment Classlist Pencil

K- F W S

1- F

Things to Consider - LNF

3 second Rule Self Corrects Dialect and Articulation Incorrects are: substitutions, omissions, stops Skipped Rows I and L font confusion Scoring = total # of letters read correctly – ] after 1

min.

number of errors = letters named correctlyhttp://www.aimsweb.com/uploads/files/LNF%20PE%201.mov – Practice Video 1

Phonemic Segmentation Fluency Oral assessment only (no student copies) - 1

minute Repeat directions exactly 3 second rule Underline each sound segment produced correctly Slash / through sounds produced incorrectly Bracket ] after 1 minute Discontinuation Rule Articulation & Dialect Score immediately – 1 point for each correct

segment
