A look at reading achievement in Colorado

Why Replace the Colorado Basic Literacy

Act?

3rd Grade CSAP Reading Percent Profi cient & Advanced and Average

Scores2003-2011

Grade 3 CSAP Reading Scores of Economically Disadvantaged

Students

Grade 3 CSAP Reading Scores of English Language Learners

2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011

Grade 3 Reading Status Change for Students Scoring Unsatisfactory on the CSAP

2005-2007

Once children score in the unsatisfactory range, it is unlikely they will emerge.

If third grade reading is the gateway to academic success, Colorado is only adequately preparing 70% of its children for future success.

The literacy achievement of Colorado’s children signals the need for intensive and coordinated efforts in policy and practice.

Literacy: A Critical Issue

What are the similarities and differences between CBLA and

READ?

What are the assessment and plan requirements for teachers?

From CBLA to READ

CBLA Assessments

Use of interim assessment(s) for all K-3 students from approved list.

DRA2, PALS, DIBELS

Primarily used as a reporting measure to CDE

READ Act Assessments

Use of interim assessment(s) for all K-3 students from approved list.

DRA2, PALS, DIBELS

Will be used to progress monitor at least 3 times per year, with more frequent progress monitoring for those students below benchmark, and will be used to report to CDE

Follow up with approved diagnostic assessment(s) for students who may have a Signifi cant Reading Defi ciency

How does the READ Act Compare with the Colorado Basic Literacy Act (CBLA)?

CBLA Support

Support provided through the Read To Achieve grant

READ Act Support

Support provided through a competitive Early Literacy Grant, regional technical assistance, and formula funds for interventions.

Specifi c parental involvement components.

Recommended instructional programming and professional development.

How does the READ Act Compare with the Colorado Basic Literacy Act (CBLA)?

The Big Ideas of the READ Act

Determination of a Significant Reading Deficiency

Approved lists for the Resource Bank of Diagnostic and Summative Assessments

Minimum Reading Skill Competencies Development of a READ Plan Convergence of School Readiness Plans and

assessment Resources to the field

Within 30 days, SCREEN all K-3 students with approved interim assessment; DIBELS, PALS, DRA2Is the score at or below the cut

off?

Yes

Within another 30 days, follow up with a progress monitoring probe

from DIBELS, DRA@, or PALS.Does the second test substantiate

the first test score?

Yes – Follow up with an approved diagnostic assessment

No – Student is actually at grade level

No – Student is below grade level but not identified as SRD

Monitor through RTI process

No

The student scored at grade level expectation. Continue with

effective core/universal instruction through the next benchmark

The student scored below grade level expectation but above the

cut off for SRD

Monitor through the RTI process

Rules for the Administration of the Colorado READ Act

15

A child scoring at least twice at or below the cut-off score category established by the interim assessment within a school year. All children shall be tested within 30 days of enrollment, and any child scoring at or below the cut-off shall be retested within 30 days on the same state board approved interim assessment.

Collect a body of evidence

Upon Determination of a Significant Reading Deficiency

From the Colorado Academic Standards

Significant correlation to reading on grade level

Students should develop mastery (A) Phonological Awareness. 5.01 (A) (1) Recognize and produce rhyming words; 5.01 (A) (2) Identify and produce groups of words

that begin with the same sound (alliteration); 5.01 (A) (3) Count, pronounce, blend, and segment

syllables in spoken words.

Minimum Reading Competency Skill Levels

Guidelines for Instruction Provide for a multi-tiered system of support Addresses the five components of reading Guided by assessment data 90 minutes for universal instruction Utilizes a scope and sequence that is delivered explicitly with

judicious review Aligned with the Colorado Academic Standards

Attributes of Effective Universal Instruction

Guidelines Addresses one or more of the five components based on

assessments Delivered with intensity, frequency and urgency Guided by assessments and driven by student need Directed by an effective teacher in the teaching of reading Utilizes a scope and sequence that is delivered explicitly with

judicious review Delivered in a small group format

Attributes of Effective Targeted and Intensive Instruction

Developmental Reading Assessment – DRA2 / EDL

Phonological Awareness Literacy Screening – PALS/PALS Español

Dynamic Indicators of Basic Early Literacy – DIBELS / IDEL

Fall/Winter Review

Approved Interim Reading Assessments (2013-2014)

Development of a READ Plan

23

CBLA Individual Literacy Plans

Individualized Literacy Plan (ILP) for ALL students reading below grade level.

Provide interventions to accelerate progress.

The READ Act READ Plans

READ plan ONLY for students with a signifi cant reading defi ciency with specifi c required components

Parent involvement in the creation of the plan

The scientifi cally-based or evidence based instructional programming that will be used for interventions

Provide interventions to accelerate progress and make advancement decision when students do not make determined progress.

The READ Act Requires a READ Plan

Specific diagnosed reading skill deficiencies. Goals and benchmarks for the student to attain

reading competency. Type of additional instructional services and

interventions that will be provided. Scientifically or evidence based programming to

be used. The manner in which the student’s progress will

be monitored. The strategies the student’s parent is encouraged

to use in assisting the student to achieve reading competency.

Additional services the teacher deems available to accelerate the student's reading skills

Required Components of a READ Plan

Shifts in our Thinking

CBLA Thinking The READ Act Thinking

Assessments were used to report out Assessments are used to progress monitor and guide instruction

Assessments could be lengthy Assessments should be brief and probe or check for progress

No diagnostic assessment used Diagnostic assessment required

No mention of RtI RtI is a foundation of the READ Act—attributes of the three tiers are described

No advice for materials Advisory list of instructional programming

Shifts in our Thinking

CBLA Thinking READ Act Thinking

No professional development Technical assistant(s) for professional development plus advisory list of professional development

All students below grade level had an ILP Only students significantly below have a READ Plan

Interventions were the focus Universal instruction as well as interventions are the focus

No guidance for instruction Outlines minimum skill competency levels teachers should be addressing
