Have you used the QRI-4 (Qualitative Reading Inventory)? That has relatively short (they do get longer though) passages. You ask questions in the beginning, they read orally, silently or listen to it begin read - to give you different information you may want, then there is a retell and comp. questions. It may do the trick, can be administered as in depth as you want and is informal. Will give you a level of a grade - not specific to beginning, middle and end though. Kelly AB

His comprehension is amazing but his basic reading skills are almost non-existent. I am looking for very simple assessment tool that will allow me to establish baseline on very basic reading skills that he can accomplish independently - not just sight words but short reading passages maybe even just a few sentences that he has to read and respond to independently as in following some directions. I need something that will give me some sort of leveled score that I can reassess several times during the year. Is there something like this and can you point me in the right direction?
