One of the best diagnostic tools for kindergarten and first grade is the
Phonological Ability Literacy Screening  (PALS)  - go to www.pals.virginia.edu
or  google  PALS
PALS was designed by Marcia Invernizzi and colleagues at the University of Virginia. Also, Beverly Tyner has a screening inventory in her book that you can get through the
International Reading Association   www.ira.org
The book is Differentiated Instruction K-2

Subject: [MOSAIC] need evaluative tool for kindergartners and first graders

Hello - I am a reading specialist who needs to assess students entering our kindergarten and first grade. I have used Clay's Observation Survey. Any other suggestions out there? Opinions on DIBELS? Can you use it for entering
kindergartners?

How expensive is DIBELS?  Thanks - Amy
