How do I use the Parent Report to share a student's progress?

The Parent Report is a way to communicate a student's progress with parents.

...

Note: If students in your class represent multiple grade levels, Reading Assistant defaults to the lowest grade level of any student in the class. Change the value in the Benchmarks field to match the grade of the students you are viewing. Reading Assistant remembers the last grade you chose when you next log in. Learn how to change the view below.
 

Using the Parent Report

The Parent Report overviews a student's assessment scores and Reading Rope percentile rankings. It now features detailed explanations and illustrations for easy understanding and practical reading tips for parents to support their child's reading development at home.

1. Arm Scores

Reading Assistant displays the ARM score for the most recent assessment in each window. 
There is also a detailed explanation of the ARM score and how to interpret it. 



2. Graph

Each dot on the graph represents one assessment or practice session along with the corresponding score. Student performance can be tracked by carefully examining which dots represent the assessment (controlled and timed) and Practice/Tutor (fluid and flexible).

  • Reading Assistant Reading Mastery (ARM): This is a norm-referenced score that allows you to tell at a glance how a student is doing. The score is expressed in relation to grade level and month of instruction. A score of 3.1 indicates a student is reading at what would be considered “on level” for a Third grader in the first month of instruction. 

  • Oral Reading Fluency (ORF): A student’s ability to read aloud smoothly or naturally.
