About this title

Synopsis

A popular classroom assessment tool, this supplement is widely used by pre-service and in-service teachers to assess or test students' reading progress. It also serves as a practical guide for reading specialists and as a focus for in-service workshops. Unique to this text are its K–12 scope and its abundant strategies (including forms) for assessing students' vocabulary, phonics, and comprehension of text.
