This is an assessment sheet I have designed which has the whole of the primary curriculum for reading. It is broken down into different domains: • Word reading • Inference • Language for effect • Comprehension – Monitor & Summarise • Comprehension – Clarify • Comprehension – Reason & Explain • Comprehension – Select & Retrieve • Themes and conventions I use this to assess the progress of pupils working below age related expectations to prove accelerated progress. At the beginning of each year you mark or highlight where they start in each domain and regularly update it throughout the year as the pupil makes progress. The next year a new teacher uses a different colour. The assessment sheet prints out best on a double sided A3 piece of paper.
