Less than $5 Homeschool Reading Assessment (by date, oldest first)

This is a quick and easy letter assessment to help identify your child's ability. I used the research behind LETRS and the science of reading to create this assessment.

My product includes:

• Instructions for use
• Letter names of uppercase and lowercase letters
• Letter sounds for all 26 letters
• Long and short vowel sounds
• Writing of upper and lowercase letters
• Google Data Sheet

All you need to do is print and assess!

Do you need a quick and efficient way to assess your students’ recall of high-frequency words?

Do you want to demonstrate individual and whole class sight word growth in multiple ways?

Do you want digital data files that can be easily accessed, shared, and analyzed?

This resource includes everything you need to benchmark your students’ recall of 109 high-frequency words three times each year. Each student (up to 30) will have a tab in this Google Sheet with three sight word assessments, one for fall, one for spring, and one for winter.

Simply click each missed word on the assessor probe as the student reads. Words read correctly and accuracy will be automatically calculated and added to the class data sheet.

⭐️NOW WITH TWO OPTIONS...CHECK CORRECT WORDS OR CHECK INCORRECT WORDS!

The following graphs will be populated from the data:

• Individual graph for each student
• Whole class line graph showing words read correctly
• Whole class bar graph comparing words read correctly by reporting period
• Whole class mean/median bar graph to demonstrate growth as a class

Each student probe can be printed and sent home so progress can be shared with parents.

Included in the zip file:

· A PDF with force copy links to the Google Sheet Digital Assessor Probes, Data Tracking, and Graph as well as a force copy link to the Google Slides version of the student probes.

· A PowerPoint and PDF (printable) version of the student probes.
