Informal Reading Assessment: Gareth
I gave Gareth the same assessment I gave Daegan, but I modified it by rewriting the words on index cards so as they were larger for him. I wanted to get a baseline reading level for him, so we can see how he improves by this time next year, as Gareth is just starting to read. His reading level is grade 0.75. He was able to read 15 of the words I wrote, mainly by slowly sounding them out phonetically, but a few words he now recognizes by sight. Gareth was able to read:
dog, dad, see, pet, run, bed, duck, frog, green, sat, swim, tree, zoo, tiger, egg
