What is DIBELS?
• Developed to monitor growth in critical early literacy
skills to:
– Identify children in need of intervention
– Evaluate the effectiveness of intervention strategies
• Set of standardized, individually administered measures
of early literacy skills
• Short, fluency based measure designed to regularly
monitor student progress toward Benchmark
• Each measure is research based and found to be a
reliable & valid indicator of reading performance and
future reading achievement

DIBELS®
Assess the Basic Early Literacy Skills
The Matthew Effect
• Refers to a self-fulfilling
prophecy - the rich get richer;
poor get poorer phenomenon
(Stanovich, 1986).
•At the beginning of first grade
there are already significant
differences in students who are
successful and those who are
struggling.
• These reading differences
become greater and more
discrepant over time (especially
at 3rd grade), demonstrating a
"Matthew" Effect.
First Sound Fluency (FSF)

DIBELS®
First Sound Fluency (FSF)
Assessor says a series of words one at a time to the student and asks the student to say the first sound in the word.
Score: Number of points for correct responses in one minute.

Scoring Rules
1. Circle the corresponding listed sound or sounds that a student
says for a word.
2. Put a slash ( / ) through the zero on the scoring page for an
incorrect response or no response within 3 seconds.
3. Write “sc” over the slash and circle the corresponding sounds or
group of sounds in the student’s response if the student self-
corrects an error within 3 seconds.
11
Scoring Rule 1: Circle Correct Responses
Circle the corresponding listed sound or sounds that a student
says for a word. A response is scored as correct as long as the
student provides any of the correct first sound responses listed for
the word.
12
Phoneme Segmentation Fluency (PSF)

Phoneme Segmentation Fluency (PSF)
14
Assessor says a word.
Student says the sounds in
the word.
Score: Number of correct
sound segments student
says in 1 minute.
Administration Directions
150
Scoring Rules
1. Underline each correct sound segments the student says. Students receive 1 point for each different, correct, part of the word.
2. Put a slash ( / ) through segments pronounced incorrectly.
3. Circle entire words.
4. Leave segments that are omitted blank.
5. Write “sc” over any self-corrected sounds that had been previously slashed.
16
Letter Naming Fluency (LNF)
17
Letter Naming
• Letter naming is not a basic
early literacy skill. The skill of
knowing letter names is not
essential to reading
outcomes.
• Letter naming is a strong and
robust predictor of later
reading performance and is
used in DIBELS®
as an
additional indicator of risk.
18
Letter Naming Fluency (LNF)
19
Assessor shows the student thepage of letters.
Student says the names of theletters.
Score: Number of letterscorrectly named in 1 minute.
Administration Directions
Put the student copy of the materials in front of the student and say:
20
Score and Scoring Rules
The student receives 1 point for each correct letter named in 1 minute.
1. Leave letters named correctly blank.
2. Slash (/) any letter that the student omits or names incorrectly.
3. Write “SC” above any letter that had previously been slashed
and was self-corrected within 3 seconds. Count that letter as
correct.
4. Draw a line through any row the student skips and do not
count that row in scoring.
21
Nonsense Word Fluency (NWF)
22
Assessor shows a page of nonsense words to student. Student reads the words.
Score:
• Number of correct letter sounds (CLS) student reads in 1 minute.
• Number of whole words read (WWR) without first being sounded out.
DIBELS®
Nonsense Word Fluency(NWF)
23
Assessor shows a page of nonsense words to student. Student reads the words.
Score:
• Number of correct letter sounds (CLS) student reads in 1 minute.
• Number of whole words read (WWR) without first being sounded out.
DIBELS®
Nonsense Word Fluency(NWF)
24
NWF Practice Item
25
Scoring Rules
1. Underline each letter sound the student says correctly, either in isolation or blended together with other sounds in the word.
2. Put a slash ( / ) over each letter sound read incorrectly.
3. Leave blank any omitted letter sounds or words. When the student is reading sound-by-sound, leave blank any inserted letter sounds. When the student is reading word-by-word, slash the underline to indicate any inserted letter sounds. This does not count as WWR.
4. Write “sc” above any letter sound or word that had been previously slashed and was self-corrected within 3 seconds. Count that letter sound or word as correct Credit is only given for WWR when the student reads the whole word completely and correctly the first time, and only reads the word once.
5. Draw a line through any row the student skips. Do not count the row when scoring.
26
Scores
• Correct Letter Sounds (CLS): the number of letter sounds
produced correctly in 1 minute. For example, if the student reads
dif as /d/ /i/ /f/ the score for Correct Letter Sounds is 3. If the
student reads dif as /di/ /f/ or “dif,” the score is also 3.
• Whole Words Read (WWR): the number of make-believe words
read correctly as a whole word without first being sounded out. For
example, if the student reads dif as “dif,” the score is 3 points for
CLS and 1 point for WWR, but if the student reads dif as “/d/ /i/ /f/
dif,” the score is 3 points for CLS but 0 points for WWR.

DIBELS®
Oral Reading Fluency (DORF)
28
Automaticity (the point) and Speed Reading (NOT the point)
• Our goal is to have children comprehend what they are reading.
• If a child is struggling with decoding, they don’t have as much attention available to focus on the meaning of what they are reading.
• Developing automaticity with word recognition will leave more attention available for comprehension.
• Developing automaticity with word recognition will increase a child’s reading rate. Increased reading rate is a byproduct in this process.
• Having children speed read (e.g., telling them to read as fast as they can for the sole purpose of reading more words per minute) is NOT the point.

Assessor shows the reading passage to the student. The student reads the passage.
Scores: • The number of words read
correctly in 1 minute.
• The percentage of words read accurately in 1 minute.

Directions
32
During benchmark assessment, three passages are administered
if the student reads 10 or more words correctly on the first
passage. When administering the second and third passages, use
the following shortened directions:
Scoring Rules
33
1. Leave blank any words the
student reads correctly.
2. Put a slash ( /) through any
errors.
DORF Retell
• If the student reads 40 or more words correctly on the passage,
have the student retell what he/she has just read.
• If the student reads fewer than 40 words correctly on a passage,
use professional judgment whether to administer Retell for that
passage.
34
DORF Retell Administration Directions
35
• Start the stopwatch and allow a maximum of 1 minute
for the retell.
• Mark through numbers in the scoring book for words in
the student’s response that are related to the story.
Remove the passage and say:
Retell Score and Scoring Rules
The student receives 1 point for every word in his/her retell that is
about what was read.
• Count as correct any words in the response that are about
what the student read.
• Count as incorrect any words in the response that are not
about what the student read.
36
Retell Scoring Rule 1: Correct Words
• Count as correct any words in the response that are about the
passage.
• The judgment is based on whether the student is generally
accurately retelling what was just read or has gotten off track.
• Move your pen through a number in the scoring booklet for each
word the student says about the passage.
37
Retell Scoring Rule 2: Incorrect Words
38
Immediately After Testing
• Reset the stopwatch for the next measure.
• Rate the quality of the student’s retell using the Retell Quality of
Response Rating.

most sense in the story.
Group or individually
administered measure.
Score: Number of correct
responses, adjusted for
guessing.
Score and Scoring Rules
The student receives 1 point for each correct word.
• A response is correct if the student circled or otherwise marked the
correct word.
• Put a slash ( / ) through any incorrect responses. Incorrect
responses include errors, boxes with more than one answer
marked, and items left blank (if they occur before the last item the
student attempted within the 3-minute time limit). Items left blank
because the student could not get to them before time ran out do
not need to be slashed and do not count as incorrect responses.
• If there are erasure marks, scratched out words, or any other
extraneous markings, but the student’s final response is obvious,
score the item based on that response.

Scoring Example: Correct Response
My friend, Tyronne, goes to a different school than I do, even
though he lives in my neighborhood. At his school, there are
programs in different languages. One of those
is called American Sign Language and I want to
more about it.
