Week 5 Assignment

QRI-5 Evaluation:

Assignments 1-3: 

The test administrator had Mary read the word lists from Level I, II, and III, until it was determined that the Level II list was most appropriate for her current reading level. Within this parameter, the examiner chose to have Mary read an expository passage from Level II which would be challenging for Mary without causing undue frustration.The following assessments relate to this passage, as determined by Mary's current reading level.

Part I: Assessment of Prior Knowledge
Mary answered one out of three questions on a basic level.

Score: 1/12

Part II: Oral Reading Miscue Analysis

Score: 46 WPM - 43 WCPM

Oral Reading Prosody Scale: 3

Part III: Assessment of Comprehension through Unaided Recall

Mary demonstrated strong recall capabilities and was able to elaborate when prompted.

Strengths & Needs: 

Mary is clearly on Level II, as the Level III reading list caused her tremendous frustration. While she was able to read the Level II list comfortably, she demonstrated difficulty in expressing prior recall. Mary's WPM / WCPM are also on target with Level II as there is room for improvement in terms of her ability to maintain her focus by holding the place and read smoothly with less prompting.
