The best way to discover how students think, or to diagnose where they are having difficulties in learning-which, aside from accountability and placement, is the main reason for testing-is to give them as much range as possible to express themselves fully, and to assess their learning in its natural context, as they make active use of the skill. (Diaz-Rico, 2008, p.80)
We provide book rental program to our kindergarten students. Before children borrow books to take home, they have to take an assessment test for ability of reading comprehension then they can borrow the appropriate books through test result. It is called SRI, Scholastic Reading Inventor is designed to measure how well students understand literary and expository texts of varying degrees of difficulty. SRI measures reading comprehension by focusing on the skills readers use when studying written materials from various content areas. These skills include identifying details in a passage, identifying cause-and-effect relationships and the sequence of events, drawing conclusions, and making comparisons and generalizations. Based on the reading level, it gives each student a personalized reading list of books matched to his or her interests and measured reading level.
It helps that every children like reading. I like this program because of no children left behind.
