I see the red flag on the computer screen. What do I do to administer pass timing?
To administer pass timing, perform the following steps:
- If necessary, stop the student's current practice timing by clicking on the clock above the story.
- Select Go to Pass Section from the Pass menu.
- Enter your teacher password and click Enter.
- Click the Start button when the student begins reading the story.
- Listen to the student read for one minute, and count any errors to yourself.
- When the timer sounds, click on the last word the student read. If a student finishes reading before the timer sounds, click the Stop button.
- Enter the number of errors and an expression rating, and then click the Next button.
- Check yes or no to indicate whether the student answered the open-ended question(s) correctly, and then click the Next button.
- Verify the score information for the story, and then click the
Next button. If you want to change the score information you entered
in steps 7 or 8, you can select the Change Scores button.
Result: If the student passes, the pass graph displays. If the student does not pass, a message displays explaining why the student did not pass.
Note: To pass, the student must reach his/her goal rate, make three or fewer errors, read with good expression (a rating of at least 2 out of a possible 4), and answer the comprehension questions correctly.
