What are DIBELS®? Roland H. Good, III, PhD and Ruth A. Kaminski, PhD DIBELS® Overview DIBELS are individually administered measures of student skills in each of the key basic early literacy skills. The Dynamic Indicators of Basic Early Literacy Skills (DIBELS) are a set of procedures and measures for assessing the acquisition of early literacy skills from kindergarten through sixth grade. DIBELS are comprised of seven measures to function as indicators of phonemic awareness, alphabetic principle, accuracy and fluency with connected text, reading comprehension, and vocabulary. History of DIBELS DIBELS were developed based on measurement procedures for Curriculum-Based Measurement (CBM), which were created by Deno and colleagues through the Institute for Research and Learning Disabilities at the University of Minnesota in the 1970s-80s (e.g., Deno and Mirkin, 1977; Deno, 1985; Deno and Fuchs, 1987; Shinn, 1989). Initial research on DIBELS was conducted at the University of Oregon in the late 1980s.
Teaching Ideas - Free lesson ideas, plans, activities and resources for use in the primary classroom. Guided Reading What is Guided Reading? Grouping Students l Leveled Texts l What Others Do l Teacher Resources Guided reading is a strategy that helps students become good readers. The teacher provides support for small groups of readers as they learn to use various reading strategies (context clues, letter and sound relationships, word structure, and so forth). Although guided reading has been traditionally associated with primary grades it can be modified and used successfully in all grade levels. "In primary grades children are learning to read and in upper grades they are reading to learn." What is its purpose? When the proper books are selected, students are able to read with approximately 90% accuracy. How do I do it? Although the approach to guided reading is going to depend somewhat on your class size and grade level, the following suggestions can be used to provide an initial framework. Students should be divided into small groups (4-6 students). How can I adapt it?
