Edinburgh Reading Test 2
for ages 8:6 to 10:6
Administered in two sessions of 35-40 minutes per class, ERT2 provides for each pupil a reliable overall assessment of reading (giving norms as both standardised scores and reading ages) plus a diagnostic profile of four key skills in literacy: vocabulary, sequencing, use of context and comprehension of main ideas.
The ERT series has long been popular with class teachers as well as special needs and support teachers wanting more than just a simplistic, global measure of reading attainment. It has also proved popular for annual screening and standards monitoring.
The series comprises four overlapping tests (see below), each of which assesses a range of age-appropriate literacy skills (e.g. vocabulary, sequencing, comprehension of points of view, etc) and provides a diagnostic profile that will inform teaching throughout each year, and are not designed solely for end-of-year assessment.
PLUS now with Scorer/Profiler CD-ROM (view demo)providing:
