How does the Read Naturally standard for accuracy at the time of the hot timing prepare students for the DIBELS Next expectations for accuracy on oral reading fluency (ORF) assessments?
In addition to benchmark rate goals (wcpm) for ORF, DIBELS Next specifies accuracy expectations for different grade levels at different times of the year in their technical report. Because Read Naturally interventions require a high standard of accuracy (no more than three errors at the pass step), students’ awareness of the importance of accuracy is raised. Read Naturally’s attention to accuracy prepares students to be mindful of accuracy on their oral reading fluency assessments as well. This standard of accuracy actually surpasses the DIBELS Next expectation for accuracy on oral reading fluency assessments.
