The Reading Survey is a Likert-type; self-report that is administered to a group. It assess self-concept as a reader and the value of reading. The interview provides information about the students' reading motivation. Such as who are their favorite authors, what is their favorite book or series.

It is designed to help teachers analytically observe, record and evaluate changes in a student's reading performance. This program has tools to assess reading engagement, fluency and comprehension. It allows you to identify strengths and weaknesses so you can target instruction to meet the needs of all students.

If the reader fails to use both processes he/she will not have the ability to comprehend the text.

1. Meaning - Does the error affect the meaning? Does it make sense?
2. Structure (Syntax) - Does the miscue follow the grammatical structure of a sentence? Does the reader show an awareness of the structure of language?
3. Visual Information - Does the error look right? Is the reader looking at the structure of the print?

It is a conversation the teacher has with the student immediately following the oral reading. The teacher invites the student to talk about the text; it goes beyond retelling. The teacher rates the student's responses by identifying key understandings student should have gained from thinking within the text, beyond the text and about the text. There are prompts available to help teachers elicit key understandings from the student.

They also give interventions to be used with each profile. The eight profiles are: Literalists, Fuzzy Thinkers, Left Fielders, Quiz Contestants, Politicians, Dodgers, Authors and Minimalists.

* Meaning Maintenance Index (MMI) - the total number of counted miscues that violated the meaning of the language; total only miscues marked with zeroes

These require the reader to recall information from the text or to make connections between the ideas in the text. It also uses Inference items that require readers to draw conclusions by relating the information in the text to their knowledge. Critical Response items are the third measure of assessment. They ask the reader to concentrate on the "bigger picture" and decide on the general importance of the text. They also need to support their ideas that are based on the information in the text that is associated with their background experiences.]]> 2017-02-21 15:36:16 UTC https://padlet.com/calmmed_32/mgry6tld1cka/wish/155183172 calmmed_32 https://padlet.com/calmmed_32/mgry6tld1cka/wish/155225175 This survey is best known as the Garfield Survey. It was put together to be given to elementary students to assess their motivation to read and their attitude toward reading. The survey consists of twenty items and can be administered to a whole group in about ten minutes. Each item has a brief, simply worded statement about reading followed by four pictures of Garfield. Each one of Garfield's pose represents a different emotional state. These poses range from very positive to very negative. ]]> 2017-02-21 17:14:28 UTC https://padlet.com/calmmed_32/mgry6tld1cka/wish/155225175 calmmed_32 https://padlet.com/calmmed_32/mgry6tld1cka/wish/155240297 The National Assessment of Educational Progress is the largest nationally representative and continuing assessment of what America's students know and what they can do in various subject areas. Paper and pencil assessments are being administered in mathematics, reading, writing, the arts, civics, economics, geography, U.S. history and in Technology and Engineering Literacy (TEL).
