Save valuable instructional time and assess every student's reading performance with online Running Records. Benchmark Books or Benchmark Passages can be used to determine if a student is ready to progress to the next level. Each student sends recordings to your In Basket in a three-part assessment process that provides you with a comprehensive view of your students' reading abilities and monitors their progress.
When using the program for the first time, we recommend starting with a Running Record benchmark assessment at the student's age or grade level.
To assign a Running Record:
Log in to Raz-Kids.
Select Assignments from the Manage Students menu.
Click View by Student.
Click Assign an Assessment.
Select Running Record.
Check the appropriate student(s).
Select the reading level and book/passage.
Click Assign Assessment.
The next time students log in, they will be prompted to complete the three-part assessment: record themselves reading the book or passage; record a retelling of the text; and take a comprehension quiz.
Reviewing the recordings in your In Basket provides you with a comprehensive view of your students' reading abilities and helps you monitor their progress.
