Since Bethany's repetition is not an error, we would calcuate her percent accuracy as (23-1) divided by 23, which give us 0.96x100 = 96% accuracy.

This would be an Independent level for Bethany, assuming she had good comprehension, and we need to read a more challenging book with her.

1. Calculate Bethany's Accuracy on the level 3 (hint: remember the self-correct is not an error). Write it down, as well as whether this would be where you stopped with Bethany.
2. After writing down your answers, move on to Aaron and then Eric. You will be asked to record your answers for all three children in the Google link at the bottom of this Module.

Lancaster ISD teachers must complete the activity below to receive credit.

Notice that on her final Running Record Data Sheet, the teacher recorded only Accuracy scores between 90 and 94%, and only comprehension scores that were a 2 or higher.

Let's talk a little more about comprehension.

Once you feel you have adequately determined the child's comprehension, rank it using a rubric from 1-3.

• 1 = Poor comprehension
• 2 = Adequate comprehension
• 3 = Complete comprehension

The table above gives a few descriptors for each category.  If the child's comprehension is a 1, this is NOT the child's Instructional level, and you must read an easier book with the child. Remember, reading is all about understanding what you read!
