It provides a comprehensive gauge of a child’s interest in reading. The individually administered assessment consists of parallel forms for testing and extension passages for use with more able or older pupils. Two alternate standardised tests enable the monitoring of a child’s performance without them becoming too familiar with the passages, in addition to one diagnostic test. Why use NARA? • Results obtained from using NARA will enable you to select reading materials suited to the ability of individual pupils • Along with important diagnostic information NARA provides Standard Age Scores and reading ages • It will enable you to monitor the adoption of specific reading skills and help with the planning of intervention strategies Contents: Complete Set contains: Manual, Reader, Record Forms Level 1 & 2 (10 copies of each), Diagnostic Tutor Forms (10 copies) and audio CD Prices *+VAT Complete Set 978 07087 07739/GLA500 £150.00* Manual 978 07087 07814/GLA500 £60.00 Reader 978 07087 07753/GLA500 £60.00 Record Form 1 (Pack of 10) 978 07087 07760/GLA500 £20.00* Record Form 2 (Pack of 10) 978 07087 07777/GLA500 £20.00* Diagnostic Tutor Form (Pack of 10) 978 07087 07784/GLA500 £20.00* Our brand new Online Marking Tool (OMT) is available for Reading Now, offering a higher level of accuracy than scoring by hand and reducing marking time significantly.
