Part 1: Literacy Assessments and Student Reading Profile

In collaboration with your mentor, select two literacy assessments you will administer to a student identified by your mentor. You may select tests available in topic Resources, such as DIBELS or EasyCBM.com, or you may use assessments your mentor provides. You may assess any basic literacy skills or knowledge, including but not limited to, letter names, letter sounds, phoneme segmentation, word reading fluency, oral reading fluency, or reading comprehension. (Each assessment should only take 1-2 minutes to administer.)

After administering the assessments, analyze the assessment data collaboratively with your mentor teacher, and complete the “Student Reading Profile ” template to summarize the data and identify the student’s reading strengths, areas for growth, and reading goals. Use a pseudonym to protect the student’s identity.

Part 2: Reflection

Write a 250-500 word reflection on the following:

• Summarize the additional classroom data and information obtained from your mentor.
• Identify 2-3 instructional strategies that would support the reading goals identified on the profile.
• Explain how the data collected informs the strategies.
