[Xmca-l] Re: A Question about Reading and Motivation

[White, Phillip]

Helen, you can start off with these sources that are attached files.

and by the way, it's quite easy and quick to assess where a child's proficiencies are in reading.  a reading inventory can usually be done within 30 minutes per child - in fact, i know of many schools where teachers assess students individually within the first two days of school.  also, a "running record" can be done just as easily to identify which reading strategies a student is employing and which can bear strengthening.

enjoy!
