Level E
Literal and Inferential Retelling or Summary Say, “Please tell what happened in this story.” Write notes regarding the student’s retell on the back of this page. If the student has trouble getting started, prompt him/her to look at the text. Say, “What happened first?” Make a note that you prompted the student. Some students will retell the story sequentially in response to this prompt, while others will retell the gist of the story. Either response is acceptable here. Use the Retelling Rubric and Sample Student Responses to determine if the child’s retell and response to the comprehension questions are acceptable. If a student is not able to retell but is able to answer the comprehension questions, note that this student will need extra work on how to retell a story.
Comprehension Questions Section: Analyze the student’s retelling/summary to see if it contains information that answers each question below. If a question was not answered in the retelling, ask it and record the student’s response.
1. Literal Question: Name three things the younger sister likes to do.
2. Literal Question: Name three things the older sister likes to do.
3. Inferential Question: Tell at least two ways the sisters are different.
4. Inferential Question: How do you know that both sisters were happy at the end of the story?
Final Score Yes No Was the reader’s accuracy rate at least 96%? Yes No Did the reader demonstrate understanding of three out of the four comprehension questions? (The child may answer the questions through retelling, and/or may need the teacher to ask the questions directly.) Please note: If the child’s retelling includes answers to comprehension questions, do not ask the questions over again. Mark the question as answered correctly. Only ask the comprehension questions that were not already addressed in the child’s retelling. Is this the student's independent reading level? •
If you did NOT answer “yes” to all questions in this Final Score box, try an easier text. Keep moving to easier texts until you find the level at which you are able to answer “yes” to all questions in the Final Score box.
•
If you circled two “yes” answers in this Final Score box, the student is reading strongly at this level. However, it is possible that the student may also read strongly at a higher level. Keep moving to higher passages until you can no longer answer “yes” to all questions. The highest level that showed strong reading is the independent reading level. For example, you might find that you answered “yes” to all questions in the Final Score box for level E, then a “yes” to all questions for level F, but only one “yes” answers for level G. Level F is the highest passage on which you were able to answer “yes” to all questions in the Final Score box. Level F is the current independent reading level for the student.
