3 What the purpose of Survey? When to Conduct Survey Identify a student s instructional level Guidelines DIBELS Composite Score Below cut point for risk (well below benchmark level) Determine the level of progress monitoring Guidelines DIBELS Next Survey DORF BOTH Words Correct & Accuracy scores are Below Benchmark EITHER or BOTH Words Correct & Accuracy are Well Below Benchmark Words Correct falls below OPTIMAL Set ambitious goals Make instructional decisions to accelerate student progress Rules Rules NWF PSF Both NWF CLS & NWF WWR are Below Benchmark or Well Below Benchmark PSF scores are at the Well Below Benchmark Begin with FSF Student Skill Levels Mastery Level Instructional level Progress Monitoring Level The highest level of demonstrated skills at or above benchmark. One grade above the mastery level. Progress toward the goal. May be the same as the instructional level.

Syntactic Processes Grammar/P arts of Speech Supports Literacy in DISTRICT the Content Areas PRES TITLE Supports Common Core Morphological Processes Prefixes, Suffixes, Roots The REWARDS Strategy 6-Step Strategy to Break Down Complex Words 1.Circle the prefixes 2.Circle the suffixes Underline the vowels Say the parts of the word. Say the whole word. Make it into a real word. The REWARDS Strategy: 6 Steps In Action suddenness Why does this work? Requires students to pay attention to the word (as opposed to skipping it or guessing) expansion Breaks words into manageable chunks (increasing student s ability to recognize patterns) transportation Helps students pronounce words correctly (increasing ability to recognize the word) expansion infection construction 9
