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
