Re: [MOSAIC] Benchmark Testing
My district uses the DRA and the benchmark assessment from our reading series. We give the DRA in the fall and spring to everyone. If a child is below grade level we also give them the DRA in January.

Re: [MOSAIC] Benchmark Testing
In North Kansas City School District we use AimsWEB and Fountus Pinnell. I do not like Aimsweb for progress monitoring however. When you progress monitor with a Maze test, it often does not match what the intervention is. I do not like that.

Hi Marsha I'm in California and am looking for the same type of information for kinder and grade one. Our district uses curriculum associates tool for grades 2-8. We give it 4 times a year. It is directly aligned with CA standards and has a math and Ela component. A friend of mine said they use PALS in VA for the younger grades. Some districts around here are using DRA. I'll email more info regarding CA districts as I find it. Do you know what type of tools are used for K-1 in your area? Sandy.
