Assessments

Good Morning! We began our DIBELS assessments yesterday in 1st grade. This stands for Dynamic Indicators of Basic Early Literacy Skills. Each assessment takes approximately 1 minute and gives us a quick snapshot of whether or not your child will need some intervention for reading. Every child not making a specific score on the assessment will be placed in an appropriately leveled intervention group for 30 minutes each day. We will do a quick check every week to make sure your child is making adequate progress and will make any changes necessary to ensure academic success. Please feel free to call or come by the school to make an appointment with me to see your child's scores and discuss any reading group placement. I hope you have a great day!
