Jarrod's Reading Assessment Scores
Response to Intervention Plan
In considering the results of Jarrod’s reading assessment scores, it was observed that Jarrod is in the lowest percentile in the areas of rate, fluency, and rapid symbolic naming. Jarrod is in the 86th percentile in phonemic awareness and given his age and grade level, the recommended course of action to improve Jarrod’s reading would be to focus on fluency, specifically his rate of reading.
Pre-Assessment Data
On the GORT-5, Jarrod’s average rate was one minute and 71 seconds or 131 seconds. Jarrod reads very slow and is focused too much and pronouncing the words correctly that he is not able to make meaning from the text. Although reading comprehension was is strongest skill area in the GORT-5, research on reading

Jarrod will be instructed to read the passage while he is being recorded. Then, Jarrod will be asked to reflect on how well he think he read the passage. Then, Jarrod will listen to himself read the passage. Ms. Coomer will then read the passage to Jarrod and have compare what was different between the two readings, placing specific emphasis on reading rate. During the next intervention, Jarrod will practice reading the same passage aloud while he is being recorded. Jarrod will then listen to the two recordings from the previous lesson and from this lesson and compare his reading. If it seems there is no improved, Ms. Coomer and Jarrod will practice assistive reading, where Ms. Coomer will read the passage next to him. During the next intervention, Jarrod will practice assistive reading with Ms. Coomer, if he feels more confident in the passage, Ms. Coomer and Jarrod will practice reading the passage twice using choral reading. Then Jarrod will read the passage by himself and listen to the previous lesson’s recording and comment on his reading rate. This intervention will continue for two weeks. If Jarrod reaches the expected reading rate for the chosen passage, he will work on the next highest

    Based on Brianna’s score in the DSI screener, she is in the letter naming stage, near at the end of kindergarten. Based on her letter naming subtest, Brianna is struggling with initial and final consonants. This is reflected in her TOWRE scores, where Brianna is 5th and 6th percentile in identifying sight words and pseudo words. These results show that Brianna does not recognize spelling patterns that may help her decode words. This correlates with her low scores during the GORT assessments and CTOPP in phonemic awareness. However, Brianna’s highest scores were comprehension on the GORT, as well as rapid letter naming and rapid digit naming on the CTOPP. This suggests that Brianna has a stronger visual memory and stronger listening comprehension…

    While she initially read with confidence and made good use of the punctuation, she re-read parts of sentences in the final passage indicating that she was monitoring her reading for meaning. She made 13 errors in the final reading passage. This would suggest that Keira’s reading strategies broke down with unfamiliar and more complex language, particularly polysyllabic words. This was also indicated by Keira’s CTOPP2 results for phonological awareness (standard score 82) and her single word reading WRAT4 (standard score 80). Keira’s speed of reading was standard score 90 (mid-average…

    Ways to assist Ayden’s reading speed include increasing classroom modeled reading and shared reading. According to Tompkins (2014), teachers provide the greatest amount of support when they demonstrate how expert readers read. By reading at the appropriate pace and expression, Ayden could read along and observe how the prosody and expression with which his teacher reads. Shared reading would also be a useful strategy, as it allows students to interact with the reading and requires students to follow along while the teacher. Implementing strategies that foster reading accuracy would be helpful to ensure Ayden is reading at a more appropriate pace and furthering his development of reading…

    This will allow him to read refrains over and over again to help him better recognize words. Do this only for a limited amount of time to make sure he is not just memorizing the words. To improve Damey’n’s fluency, I would recommend the strategy of simultaneous assisted reading. This will allow the teacher to set the pace, it will make Damey’n feel less pressure, and the teacher can help pronounce words. As the teacher participates less throughout readings, Damey’n will have an idea of the rate he should be reading at and feel more…

    The purpose of this assignment was to find a child in the primary grades and create a literacy profile based on an assessment. To best assess Landon’s reading level and literacy development I chose to conduct a reading record for him. Before conducting the assessment I had to get to know more about Landon and we had to get comfortable with each other. I began by conducting two interviews one with Landon to get to know more about him, and the second interview was with a parent. From the interviews I learned that Landon is in the first grade and he is in a literacy rich environment living with two educated parents. To help recommend books I asked him some questions about his hobbies and favorite things to do and he explained that he loves sports.…

    Stated by Ruskey (2011), Samuels work from the 1970’s continues to have influence in the field of reading strategies that focus on practice and repetition (p.19). Samuel (1979) found four supporting findings for his work in repeated reading, first, the original findings had been replicated to a high degree of accuracy and speed develops in the practiced text; next, there is a transfer of fluency to other portions of the text, even the parts that were not specifically practiced; then, repeated reading is the most universally used remedial reading technique to help poor readers improve reading skill; Finally, repeated reading is now widely used widely to teach reading in foreign languages (p.381). An important finding in Samuel’s work demonstrated that as the student continued to use this method, the data revealed that the student speed with each new passage increased from the previous one (Ruskey, 2011, p.19). The author hypothesizes that 4th grade ELL students will improve their reading fluency score due to repeated reading in small group…
