I would recommend the QRI5 (Qualitative Reading Inventory, 5th edition) as well. A QRI can help you pinpoint where a student's reading breaks down. Know that it is somewhat time consuming; 1:1, 20-30 min. per student. However, once you move to diagnosing or troubleshooting kids with reading difficulties that are deeply rooted, or puzzling, it becomes essential. We used QRI's in our reading clinic and found that by pinpointing a student's reading needs, we were able to streamline interventions, while witnessing immediate results.
