About this title

Synopsis

Designed to support holistic and eclectic approaches, this assessment tool is the most comprehensive on the market. The flexible battery of tests enables teachers to quickly screen children and adults in a non-threatening manner so appropriate referrals can be made. Field-tested, this inventory offers a unique range of devices to identify reader abilities in five specific areas - Reading Readiness, Word Identification, Comprehension, Spelling, and Language. It also uses an arithmetic test to compare language skills with math skills for better overall assessment.

From the Back Cover

The current edition of the most comprehensive reading inventory. Based on the latest cognitive research, The Bader Reading and Language Inventory offers a range of devices and graded passages to test reading ability through the twelfth grade level. The inventory includes pre-literacy and word-identification tests to ensure a comprehensive assessment and an arithmetic test to determine competence independent of verbal skills. It also provides instructions for administering and evaluating the tests and a scoring guide for each passage. In addition, experiential word lists permit testing of individuals with little formal schooling and those for whom English is a second language. Also includes several unique sections: "Classroom Teacher's Reading Referral" (passages for classroom assessment); "Interest and Attitude" (determine a students' optimal instructional environment); and "Portfolio Assessment" (guidelines for classroom use, establishing criteria, and selecting appropriate portions of the inventory). The third edition of The Bader Reading and Language Inventory now includes a separate booklet of reading passages, a greater emphasis on portfolio and "authentic" assessment, and the inclusion of an ESL test. An essential diagnostic tool for educators.
