Abstract | This monograph is composed of two papers, one which discusses a study undertaken to examine standardized reading tests in relation to pupils' performance and another which contains samples of materials that could be made available to parents by their children's teachers or by community leaders. The research project analyzed the scores of 61 seventh grade pupils who had taken the Standard Diagnostic Reading Test during the 1971 school year. From the analysis it appeared that only 42 out of 255 items were designed specifically to find out how well the pupil can comprehend printed prose. An examination of the items in the subtests on vocabulary and comprehension suggested that at least 27 of the 82 items could be failed by pupils for reasons other than inability to read. The materials intended for parents' use include samples of things parents can do to help with reading. The first samples are intended for use with younger children who are just beginning to read and contain activities for developing auditory discrimination, visual discrimination, and language development. Activities for older readers are suggested toward the end of the booklet and contain activities for developing comprehension, motivation, and language development. (WR) |
