Hello Readers!
I am hoping someone can help me with a question that keeps coming up in our
school regarding the DRA2. Do you ever test down? For example, in the fall a
child scored in the independent range on a level 28 but only instructional on
the level 30 so the teacher stopped the assessmen
Carol,
Yes, because you truly want to see if the child remains independent at that
level. We had a child enter gr 4 at a L38 and test down to a L28. It's amazing
how much some children can lose over the summer.

found also that the
children being tested on non fiction were not scoring as well if they had the
prior year been tested on fiction.

In our school we do test down to see where the child is working. It is
possible though unusual that a student would regress. That information might
be important documentation if the student is being considered for special ed
evaluation. It could also be valuable information for
