How do you move from assessment results to meaningful instructional decisions?

Assessments are only useful when the information they provide changes what we do next. This 90-minute recorded workshop explores how to use literacy assessment data to identify student needs, plan instruction, and make informed decisions across the literacy block.

In this workshop, you'll explore:

  • The purposes of universal screening, diagnostic assessment, progress monitoring, and classroom-based assessment.

  • How to interpret screening data and identify students' instructional needs.

  • How to use assessment results to organize skill-based small groups.

  • When additional diagnostic assessment is needed.

  • How to use progress monitoring to evaluate student response to instruction.
