[quote=Anonymous]Why don't you ask your teacher? She/he might be helpful to let you know what part of the DRA your child can improve on. I *think*, sometimes, a child might "max" out on the DRA for a particular level at a particular time of year bc they aren't testing higher. But the DRA is more than just reading fluenty. The child needs to be able to read the book, close it, and then retell the story in order from beginning to end with details. Then the child also needs to make predictions (maybe higher level DRA?), and make connections from the book into his or her own life. The children are even tested on use of expression while reading. It's a lot of 'comprehension' rather than just reading the book straight through. [/quote]
