How to be most prepared for our first session
Preparation means success
01
iReady / DIBLS / IEP / 504 data
Ask your child's teacher to send a snap shot of their most recent iReady Diagnostic. This will highlight areas to focus on.
02
Writing samples
Try to bring any graded work I can look at to determine a jumping off point and understand the work that is being completed.
03
Share your concerns
What are you child's areas of need?
04

Feel free to also bring any school work that needs to be finished as well!
What to expect after each session
First Session: Initial Assessments
The first session is typically 40-45 minutes of assessments, and 15 minutes of parent-to-tutor conversation. The last 15 minutes will be where I will share results and we can , as a team, decide whether a 1-on-1 would be best, or a learning pod! Based on age and ability, I will most likely be using the Qualitative Reading Inventory (QRI) to assess their knowledge and ability to read words in isolation (in a list) or in context (in leveled stories). This will also tell me whether your child is stronger at fiction or non-fiction reading. If your child is not ready for QRI skills yet, we will assess letter and sound knowledge as well as handwriting!
I will create and share a data driven slide show with you about that will outline what we did in each session. You can view it at your convenience. This will give you an idea of:
-
What we worked on
-
Any mastered skills from the previous sessions
-
Skills we will continue to focus on
