  1. RED 4519Dr. Michelle Kelley Informal Reading Inventory: Putting it Altogether

  2. What is an IRI? • Informal • Reading • Inventory • Examples of: DRA, QRI, Ekwall-Shanker, and so on..

  3. What is the purpose of an IRI? • Estimate a student’s reading level for reading: • Independently • Instructionally (guided reading) • To match students to text based on reading level and needs • To assess their oral reading (fluency), decoding, and comprehension. • To monitor growth, determine instructional effectiveness, and plans for instruction

  4. Components of an IRI • Student is given a graded passage, story. • Student is asked prior knowledge and or prediction questions. • Student reads orally (teacher conducts running record and times reading). • Student is asked to retell passage or story and/or is asked comprehension questions.

  5. How do you know what passage or story to give? • Teacher input • Previous testing information • Asking the student the titles of books read • San Diego Quick Test (a graded word list)

  6. How do I know if the student is independent? 1. The student must be able to read with a % of accuracy (word recognition) AND 2. The student must have % (or rubric score) demonstrating comprehension

  7. DRA K-3: Practice • Read through the completed teacher observation form with an elbow partner. • Note the structure of the assessment. • Now let’s watch Ryan and the teacher in action. • Whole group debrief.

  8. DRA K-3: Practice • Review your blank form with an elbow partner, notice structure of this assessment • Listen to “Matthew” and do the Running Record • You will… figure out the Accuracy Rate- % determine Comprehension Level- Score describe Phrasing and Fluency- words identify his Strengths & Weaknesses • Compare results with teacher’s (blue papers)

  9. Ways to Help Matthew Look at Purple Focus on Instruction Sheet. What would you do? • Retelling • Fluency • Independent Reading • Variety of strategies for unknown words

  10. Let’s Debrief Discuss at your table: Compare and contrast the assessment experiences (Ryan vs. Matthew). How were they similar and how were they different? Why do you think there was such a difference?

  11. DRA: Stages of Reading • Emergent Readers- DRA text levels A-1; Concepts of Print • Early Readers- DRA text levels 3-10; preview/predict, reads text orally, retelling. • Transitional Readers- DRA text levels 12-24 (from 18 up student reads text silently, retells, then does oral reading of only a portion of the text). • Extending Readers- DRA text levels 28-44 (see above).
