My question was related to Jennifer's comment below. How do I perform the
informal comprehension check? Pardon my ignorance, I am still a new teacher.
Thank you

This is another case of needing to clarify terminology.
Reliable- a test given that's likely to get the same score each time it's given.
Validity- the test measures what it's supposed to measure in this case reading
ability.
I don't want to oversimplify this, but rather clarify my earlier
Thanks everyone for your responses. Thank you for the clarification Jennifer. I
love this group!

The SRI costs money--but is the most reliable way to get a lexile.The cheapest
thing to do is to test books you know the lexile of on children. Ask them to
read a passage from several books of differing lexiles... Do an informal

Actually, I would say that Jennifer's option of having kids read
passages from the actual books is MORE reliable, since it is more real
and authentic. Unless you are hung up on data crunching, of course.
But whenever possible I am for putting the data gathering back into
the hands and minds

I have worked in several districts that all have used NWEA Measures of
Academic Progress. If you are not familiar

My K-12 district has been looking into switching to NWEA Measure of Academic
Progress for our universal screener. The only drawback we see is our current
universal screener (K-8 AIMSweb, which provides Lexile) has
