I totally agree that QRI is the best reading inventory I have used. The DRA is not practical for the classroom as it takes so long and uses a LOT of paper just for one student/one test. When it takes 8 sheets of paper to test one student, that is excessive. I also feel like the DRA is more a writing test than a reading inventory.
