reading assessment tools

Reading assessment tools are methods used to evaluate a person's reading skills, including their ability to recognize words, understand text, and read fluently. These tools help teachers and specialists identify a student’s strengths and challenges, guiding tailored instruction. Examples include standardized tests, informal reading inventories, and observing reading behaviors. They provide valuable insights into a learner's progress and inform decisions about additional support or instruction, ensuring that teaching strategies effectively improve reading skills.
