Most DIBELS tests are ‘Tests for Teaching’ butnot DIBELS ORF (Oral Reading Fluency)Tests for Teaching:I’ll teach this skillGeneralIndicators:What skillsshould Iteach?InitialSoundFluency(ISF)PhonemeSegmentationFluency (PSF)Letter NamingFluency (LNF)NonsenseWordFluency(NWF)OralReadingFluency(ORF)
Things I reflected on from DIBELS‣ Strengths:• The large amount of info gained from 1-minute tests.• Later: how 1-minute might actually be inefficiently long.• The power of free-to-use tests.• The power of tests having multiple parallel forms.• The ease with which Tests for Teaching can bedeveloped (using CBM principles)• Tests being useful for teaching teachers about readingaccuracywhile they are working to improve children’sreading.‣ Possible improvements:• That the DIBELS RA development model is complete fortransparent orthographies but incomplete for English.• That teachers would benefit by additional Tests forTeaching on the skills not currently tested by DIBELS.
