In Tustin Unified School District (TUSD) elementary schools, teachers track the progress of students using a set of quick tests developed at the University of Oregon called the “Dynamic Indicators of Basic Early Literacy Skills” or DIBELS.
While the name sounds funny, this tool is actually very good at tracking the age-specific skills that are required for a student to learn to read effectively.
If you have a concern about your child’s reading development, you should ask your child’s teacher to review your child’s DIBELS results with you.
If you have other questions about your child’s reading development, feel free to contact Judy Davis at Judy@helpmychildread.com!
