Identifying Students for Reading Interventions

This chart shows cut scores for K-8th grade using Oral Reading Fluency scores from 2 unfamiliar grade-level appropriate passages and the Developmental Reading Assessment 2. The scores used identify students reading below the 25th percentile. These students need high quality Tier 1 instruction and intervention AND 30-60 extra minutes at least 3 days per week of Tier 2 interventions. An effective intervention includes explicit strategy instruction and practice with coaching.
