During the lesson of the QRI-5, we watched videos of a third grade ELL student named Brianna. We first watched Brianna read the words off of the primer word list, which let us see what reading level we should begin her on. She confidently and correctly read all of the words off of the first word list, so from that we went on. On the first list she had a hard time with a few of the words. She was given a Narrative story to read, which was called Mouse in a House. She very accurately answered the concept questions and from that she went on to Level two.
In the Level: Two expository writing prompt, Whales and Fish, she was not able to recognize the topic very well. She was not able to answer many of the concept questions that she was asked, also she had a hard time recollecting the main events that had happened in the story, which showed us that she was just reading to try and get the passage over with. From this, it showed us that we should not move on to Level: Three.
Brianna did very well on the Narrative part of the QRI-5, because she was familiar with what she was reading. She did not do well on the Level: Two reading, because she did not really have any familiarity with Whales and Fish. This assessment is good to help a teacher meet the different needs of the students in their classroom, because every student is different and learns differently. The teacher needs to fix their lessons to help meet the needs of the students in their classroom.
