Why didn't they send this info home at the end of the school year?
My 8 year old brings home his reading assessment test from school which is the Scholastic Reading Inventory (SRI) they took last week.
before I give you results I will give you some history this child claims he does not like to read, all last year he refused to read 20 minutes at night and write a couple of sentences about what he read. Instead he would write sentences about a story he made up in his head which he would then have to read to make sure he spelled everything correctly, so I let him go with it. Spelling tests this child never studied for a spelling test nor did he ever score lower then a 98% on a spelling test.
This is the same child who was in the lowest reading class in 1st and 2nd grade and was receiving additional help in reading in both grades. ( my oldest also struggled with reading and still does sometimes. I just assumed my youngest was following suit)
At the end of second grade their score should be 475.
At the beginning of 3rd grade their score should be 475.
At the end of 3rd grade their score should be 590.
Now for his test scores I was blown away..........
Jesse scored a 641 at the end of 2nd grade.
Jesse scored a 532 at the beginning of 3rd grade ( yeah I slacked off during the summer.)
He also informed me very happily that he is in the highest reading class in the third grade.
