Are used to assess reading performance as a student reads from a benchmark book, and provides insight into why a student may be struggling with reading comprehension or fluency. Assessed selections are short for early emergent readers and generally no more 100-150 words long for fluent readers. As the student reads aloud, the teacher notes words that are substituted or omitted.

Back

The best tool for a teacher to use to keep a running, averaged record of student scores throughout the year is a

Front

Spreadsheet. This is a useful tool for calculating running totals of scores since they can be designed to calculate averages as you add in data. Most districts have online grading programs that are used for entering grades, calculating averages, and posting marks online for parents, guardians, and students to view.

Front

The student may be lacking a prerequisite skill. For example, a student who struggles with long division may have not mastered multiplication math facts. Revisiting prerequisite skills may remedy the problem.

Back

When testing for mastery,

Front

It is acceptable to reteach and retest concepts multiple times until the student shows mastery of the skill.

Back

What is the best example of a cognitive objective?

Front
