Finally able to post- not sure why it is not letting me do this at school....
as i read all the chapters this week and was trying to complete 3 running records and one msv analysis... I asked myself- why do people do these. I do a giant amount of paperwork each day for students on IEP's- which consists of many QRI/IRI/reading assessments but the running record is a whole new level. It was painful to complete and 3 times was murderous. I have tons of respect for teachers that do these throughout the year or on a regular basis. Don't get me wrong- the information is great, but trying to remember what each mark means as a kids read 120 words per minute is a tad difficult.
