Description

For upper level undergraduate and graduate level reading diagnosis and practicum courses. Appropriate for K-12, ESL, and adult learners.

The most comprehensive assessment tool of its kind, this diagnostic battery of tests is easy for busy teachers to administer and to interpret. It provides valid, reliable procedures for individual, in-depth assessment in seven areas: Emergent Reading, Word Identification and Phonics, Comprehension, Spelling, English as a Second Language, Writing, and Oral Processing.
