VIEW NOWGRAPHIC ORGANIZERS FOR ASSESSMENT RESULTS
The graphic organizers below were designed by members of Crafting Minds to support educators as they make instructional decisions for students. There are two organizers, each designed to support the interpretation process as educators work to answer the question - why is this reader struggling? One organizer is designed for data collected through the special education eligibility or re-evaluation process. The other is intended for data collected as decisions are made about appropriate Tier 2 or Tier 3 instruction in reading. *The organizers are in a fillable PDF format, to save your results, download the completed organizer. โ
If you would like more information, Crafting Minds offers a workshop titled "Literacy Instruction That's Targeted" which guides participants through the process of data interpretation and instructional planning.
